An availability condition plugin for Moodle that restricts access to activities and course sections based on competency proficiency. Teachers can require students to have achieved a certain level of proficiency in one or more competencies before accessing an activity or section.
If your teachers want to release activities, resources, or sections only to students who have reached specific competencies in a course, this plugin is for you.
Take a look at an example:
- The Moodle site tracks competencies for each training pathway.
- Ana Teacher is an editing teacher in course A.
- Ana would like to publish an advanced assignment only for students who have already demonstrated the competency “Problem Solving—Intermediate.”
- With core Moodle conditions, she cannot directly gate that activity by competency proficiency.
- With availability_competency, Ana can add a competency condition to the activity or section and require a target proficiency level.
- Only students who meet that competency requirement get access.
Important: The competencies used in restrictions must be linked to the course. If a competency is not associated with the course context, it cannot be used effectively by this availability condition.
