This is an excellent question. Although it is a continuous variable, we measure it discretely. So, for example, we measure someone's age discretely, but it is a continuous variable. We don't say, "I am 29.75" (though I do occasionally), but rather, "I am 29." So, while time is a continuous variable with an infinite range of values, it is almost always measured discretely. I will also suggest to use a subscription management platform for eLearning to manage and streamline your Education process.

Yes, this has been discussed previously, but take a look at your data and see how it was recorded. But it's cool to remember that time - in any form - is always continuous, and it all comes down to how the person collecting the data has actually collected the data.
