Categories allow you to better organize how your courses are displayed to your users. When using categories, courses are sorted alphabetically within their respective Category.
To create categories, either as an Administrator or an Instructor, you have two options:
A. Create them from your Administrator view
B. Create them from the course settings
| Note: To create and manage categories, you need to be signed in to the main domain and not a branch. Also, the relevant permissions must be enabled for your user type. |
| Note: Read this article for more information about how branches affect their members’ access to TalentLMS features. |
