Any user who will create and assign curricula should have Course Admin permissions in Habitat. To turn this on for a user, a user admin in your organization can enable the toggle via the People Tab in Habitat.
Create a New Curriculum
- Log in to Habitat and click on the Courses tab.
- Click on the Curriculum Library tab.
- Click the Create new curriculum button.
- Add a Curriculum Title.
- Optionally add a Curriculum Description and / or set the color of the curriculum banner.
Select which published courses you would like to include in the curriculum.
After adding your courses and reviewing the optional settings, be sure to either save the curriculum as a Draft or Publish the curriculum if it is ready for distribution. The Save Draft button will change to Save and Publish after the document is published for the first time.
Once the course is published, it must be assigned to users.
Edit a Curriculum
After you have created a curriculum, you can view it (as well as any other curriculum in your organization) by clicking on the Courses > Curriculum Library tab in Habitat. Each curriculum can have a status:
- Draft Curriculum: These are curricula created via the Create a new curriculum button but not yet published. These curricula cannot yet be assigned to users.
- Published Curriculum: These are curricula that have been created and finalized via the Publish button. These curricula are ready to be assigned to users.
- Revoked Curriculum: These are curricula that have been created and finalized via the Publish button. However, they have since been Revoked from being assigned to new users.
Edit a Draft Curriculum
Clicking the title of a Draft Curriculum will allow you to edit the name, description, courses, and details. You can then add or remove courses, and change their order.
Once you have finished editing a curriculum in the Draft status, you can click the blue Publish button to save it and make it available for assignment. You can also click the Save Draft button to save your changes without publishing the curriculum.
Edit a Published Curriculum
Clicking on the title of a Published Curriculum section will bring you to the Curriculum Details page for that particular course. From here, you can make modifications to the curriculum by clicking on the Edit Curriculum button.
After making an edit, the green Published button will change to a white Save & Publish button. Clicking this button will save and publish the course with your changes.
What Will Users See When I Edit and Re-Publish A Curriculum?
New Users: Users newly assigned to the curriculum will see the edited curriculum going forward.
Users Who Already Completed The Curriculum: Users who already completed
the curriculum will see the version of the curriculum that was published at the time the curriculum was completed by them. If you want to ensure they re-take the curriculum to view modified courses, the curriculum will need to be reassigned.
Users Who Have Been Assigned The Curriculum, But Not Yet Completed It: Users who have not yet completed the curriculum will see the edited curriculum. If you add a new course to a curriculum, learners will automatically be assigned it. If you remove a course from a curriculum, the course will be unassigned to learners.
| Edited Curriculum Title | Edited Curriculum Description | Added or Removed Courses | |
|---|---|---|---|
| New Users | |||
| Users Who Already Completed Course | |||
| Users Assigned Course, Not Yet Completed |
When a course is added to a curriculum, the latest version of that course will be assigned to learners.
