1) Recap of Course Hierarchy & Dependencies
Courses organize learning content via a series of Modules that contain individual Lessons.

Courses that reside in the same Learning Program share content
An easy way to determine what is shared between a Programs Courses, Modules & Lessons is to use the Quick Links as a guide.
Content contained in a Program's Quick Links is shareable amongst all subsidiary Courses, Modules & Lessons
Modules & Lessons can be moved to any location within their parent Program
- Example: Module C1 can be moved to Course B
- Example: Lesson B2-1 can be moved to Module C1
- Non-Example: Module B2 cannot be moved to Course A
- Non-Example: Lesson A1-3 cannot be moved to Course C
Example Courses for a Distribution Center
- Example Course: Delivery Driver Training
- Example Course: [Software Name] Training
- Example Course: Onboard Training
- Example Course: Annual Training
