Course-level reset policies allow you to define a CPD reset schedule specifically for a single course. A course-level policy is only used when no group-level policy exists. If the course belongs to a group that has its own CPD reset policy, the course settings will be ignored.
Open the Course CPD Settings
Go to: WordPress Admin → Courses → Edit (select a course)
Inside the course editor, scroll to find the section named CPD Settings.
You will see a message such as: “CPD settings are saved when you click Update.”
If no policy is configured, you will also see: “No CPD reset configured.”
Enable CPD Reset for the Course
Click the button: Enable CPD reset for this course
Once enabled, two tabs appear:
- Fixed Date
- Relative
If the course is inside a group with a CPD policy, the page will show a conflict note like:
“This course is read-only because it inherits its CPD policy from a group.”
In that case, the course policy cannot be edited.

This works exactly like the group-level fixed date policy. Use this when you want all learners in this course to reset on the same date and time.
