Halito! (hello in Choctaw) I'm pleased to present on our implementation of Redwood within the Oracle Learning module for employees, managers, and LMS administrators at the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. This presentation will cover our strategic approach to the rollout, including the timeline and sequence of events, as well as the challenges we faced and the solutions we developed. The challenges we encountered included security issues, difficulties with the admin classroom page and dropdown lists, visibility problems for managers regarding direct reports, the absence of the learning tile post-enablement, and change management obstacles. We successfully addressed these challenges through Oracle Guided Learning, the execution of ESS jobs, adjustments to security roles and privileges, modifications to profile options, and effective communication strategies. As an Oracle HCM analyst, responsible for the full implementation of Redwood for Learning, I possess comprehensive insights into the entire process and would love to share my experience.
