Article summary
Skyllful learning programs are designed with a hierarchy of image libraries, learners, and assignments. Programs are the highest level of curricula organization and content is divided into them. Learners and assignments are managed at the program level and cannot be shared across programs. Courses organize learning content via modules that contain individual lessons, which can be moved to any location within their parent program. Modules further divide training content to meet more targeted objectives while lessons are the smallest grouping of content for a given objective.

Article Overview
Skyllful learning programs are designed utilizing the following hierarchy:
Learning Programs
Courses
Modules
Lessons
Image libraries, learners, assignments & other Skyllful content is grouped together by program.
Program 1 & Program 2 - CANNOT share content
Course B & Course C - DO share content
Course A & Course B - CANNOT share content
1) Learning Program
Programs are the highest level of curricula organization
Content is divided into Programs
Images and Screen Captures CANNOT be transferred to another Program unless they are downloaded to a local drive, then uploaded into the other Program.
- FYI: When you download Screen Captures, the original image is downloaded, not the replica that is made of the screen capture. That means that edits and interactive additions that were made to the Screen Captures WITHIN the Skyllful Platform will not transfer.
Learners and Assignments are also managed at the Program level and are not shared across Programs. This allows companies to maintain a level of separation, security, and privacy across separate departments/organizations.
Best Practice
When establishing the hierarchy of your Training Program, you will want to consider these structures in advance. Oftentimes, a customer will subscribe to the Skyllful Platform to solve a problem or fill a gap in their Learning & Development (L&D) Program. However, once customers begin using Skyllful, they tend to see its value in areas beyond its original objective. Over time, we have determined that companies who create Learning Programs at a level in which their personnel are naturally divided see the most success as their use of Skyllful evolves.
2) Course
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: [Software Name] Training
- Example Course: Onboard Training
