Summary:
Catalog administrators can use subjects to group related course topics and to help learners search for courses about particular subjects. When you configure a learning module in the Catalog Editor you can assign a subject to it in the Module Properties page. Learners can filter Catalog Search results by subject, and course administrators can use subjects to filter the list of learning modules in the Learning Modules page for easier administration.
After creating a new subject, you will need to configure its permissions if you want other administrators to be able to use it to group related course topics in the Catalog Editor
If you provide users with read-only permission, they can:
- Filter Catalog Search results by the subject
- Use a subject as search criteria in the Learning Modules page
- Assign a subject to a learning module in the Catalog Editor
If you provide users with unrestricted access, they can also:
- Update or delete the category
- Update the permissions assigned to it
