Firstly, what is Oracle Guided Learning? OGL is part of Oracle’s Digital Adoption Platforms (DAP). It’s a highly configurable tool which allows organisations to use in-application guides within their Cloud instances to guide users to follow processes in their preferred way. The guiding includes in-app messages, process guides, step guides, smart tips and beacons. It can be utilised to help an organisation handle change with technology, processes or to help make decisions.

Organisations have the flexibility to use the pre-defined Oracle guides or develop their own content. As with all seeded content from Oracle, it is also possible to copy the Oracle guides and modify them to meet the organisation’s needs for a hybrid approach to content development.

In-app feature messages can be customised or displayed based on the user’s roles, the time of day or the specific content. Additionally, it is possible to measure users’ interaction with the messages, to monitor the effectiveness of the communication.

The use of prompts can help users navigate through the process. Prompts can be added to any element within a page. Within the content, it is possible to view any key information, including highlighting any AI content.

OGL is provided as part of the licence for organisations using Oracle HCM, ERP or EPM Cloud. As part of the licence, an organisation is allowed to have 15 individual OGL guides. If more than 15 are required, Oracle Guided Learning Premium will be required.
