Completions

The Completions API returns the audit-grade record of which learners have completed which courses, and when. It includes historical completions imported via the EmbayLMS Switcher Program (source: "import"), so it is a single source of truth for compliance reporting and downstream BI.

A completion is an enrollment whose completed_at is set.
