Course structure: Hub and Modules

Understanding how courses are organized and customized

Courses as Hubs

Courses are built on the same framework as the Homepage or the Knowledge Hubs, meaning they can include most of the same modules and support flexible layouts.

You can customize the layout and module placement within a course to highlight the most relevant information for participants.

This course has 5 modules

 

The 'Learning Units' module

The Learning units module is exclusive to Courses — it’s where you add your Lessons and Tests.

  • It’s the only required module in a course and it cannot be deleted.

  • You can reposition it within the layout, only in the 2/3 column.

This module is the core of every course, providing access to the structured learning content participants must complete.

The Learning Units module has been renamed to 'Lessons'

 

Other available modules

In addition to Learning units, you can add optional modules to enrich your course and provide extra value to participants. These modules help you share resources, highlight people or promote related content.

Available modules include:

  • Rich text – Add formatted text, instructions or introductions.

  • People – Showcase course instructors or key contributors. Learn more
