About Categories

Catalog administrators can use categories to group your courses to aid catalog administration. When you configure a learning module in the Catalog Editor you can assign a category to it in the Module Properties page. Administrators can filter the list of learning modules by category in the Learning Modules page, to help identify courses. Learners, however, cannot search the course catalog for courses by category.

After creating a new category, you will need to configure its permissions if you want other administrators to be able to use it to categorize courses in the Catalog Editor.

If you provide users with read-only permission, they can:

See a category but not perform any action
Use a category as search criteria in Learning Modules page
Assign a category to a learning module in the Catalog Editor

If you provide users with unrestricted access, they can also:

Update or delete the category
Update the permissions assigned to it
