Training Target settings

Description

The name of training target. To avoid clutter in the notification panels, smaller names are better.

Training Type

The training area type such as Tactics, Endgames, Guess the Move and Playing. Setting this will also display a second area specific type selector so you can choose sub types such as Standard/Blitz/Mixed for tactics or Bullet/Blitz/Rapid etc for playing.

Target Type

The type of target you will be aiming for. Number targets target a number of attempts, so for example 10 tactics attempted. Number won/correct targets only won games or correct problems. Rating target, rank target and percentile target all target a particular rating, rank or percentile rank for the activity.

Period Type

There are two period types. Calendar period types target a goal for a particular calendar period (day, week, month or year). End date periods specify a target that must be completed by a particular date. For calendar period types you need to pick the period (day, week, month or year) , the period span (e.g. selecting 2 and days will create a target that needs to be achieved over two days) and the start of the period (default to now if not selected). If you want the target to repeat at the end of the period then tick the repeating target checkbox. For example if you want try to solve 10 problems every day, then choose the calendar period type, a period of day and a span of 1, and then tick the repeating target checkbox. You will have until midnight in your current timezone to complete the target, and the target will reset at the end of each day.

Assign to

The assignment field allows you to assign training targets to students. Multiple students can be entered by separating their usernames with a comma. Coaches get extra details on student training target progress on their student stats page.
