Certification Programs, also referred to as Certifications, are very similar to programs, with both facilitating the creation of adaptive learning paths, where completion dependencies can be defined and the order and flow of the courses that learners complete can be controlled. However, unlike programs, certifications are only valid for a certain period of time

A course is a single learning item in Campus.

Courses can contain one or more activities lined to the course (e.g,, elearning module, video, quiz, assignment, etc.) that must be completed for the course to be completed overall.

Courses serve as the basic element of learning assigned, tracked and reported across the system.

Dashboards allow content to be displayed on selected learner, manager or trainers home page.

Within Campus you can create evidence to associate with various features such as learning plans. You might use an evidence item for the upload of an externally obtained certificate, or to upload photo evidence, for example a photo demonstrating the user of appropriate safety equipment.
