# How do I set the number of hours a course is worth in Thinkific?

When setting up a learning path, you may wish to assign a number of hours that the course is worth, or valued, at and use this to measure a students performance. This is particularly applicable for learning paths that [require a minimum amount of learning in a given timeframe.](https://www.wooninja.io/documentation/can-i-ensure-thinkific-students-complete-a-minimum-number-of-courses-or-hours-in-a-given-timeframe/)

1. Open the WooNinja Learning Paths @ [https://paths.wooninja.io](https://paths.wooninja.io)
2. Click **Courses** on the top menu, then click **Edit** on the course you wish to adjust.

3. Enter the number of hours the course is 'worth'. In this example, the course is assigned 15 hours and requires a completion percentage of 95 per cent. You can learn more about percentage completion here.

4. Don't forget to click **Save**

**Important**

- The value of a course in hours is applied to all learning paths. It is not possible to enter a different value on a per learning path basis.
- The system does not track if the number of hours a student takes to complete a course, this value is determined by you, the course creator, and should be a reasonable estimate of the time a student would take to finish your course.
