  • How and Why to Create a New Course Version - Leadership Academy

    This article describes why an admin would want to create a new course version, as well as how to do so. Creating a new course version is different from creating a course.

    When to create a new course version

    One course may be configured differently for different audiences and/or may be updated periodically with updated content. To account for this variation within a course without affecting learners, the platform utilizes course versions. 

    Versions allow different audiences to see variations of the same course. For example, if a course is configured for a marketing team and then a supply chain team wants to take the course, you may wish to reconfigure a few aspects of the course for the new audience. Rather than rebuilding a new course from scratch, you can create a new course version within the same course without changing the content for the cohort that already took the course.  

    Another example: If you build a course this year and then next year you update the content, learners that took the course this year will be confused if they revisit the course. Should they have taken the new version of the course? Did they miss a memo about viewing the updated content?

    How to create a new course version

    1. Click on the admin tools icon on the top right of any page after logging in.

    2. On the Courses page, click on the course title.

    3. On the right side of the course version you wish to copy, click Copy. Note: Make sure you’re copying the version you’d like copied.

    Implications to consider when changing a course version name

    The new course version name is only displayed to admins accessing the Course Admin page. It does not update the course title in the course page, catalog, Admin Tools page, or anywhere else the course title is displayed. Changing the version name simply changes the name of the version for admins only. If you would like a new course title to be displayed throughout the platform, learn how to update a course title.

    Changing a course version name also does not create a new course version, it simply changes the name of the current version. Learn more about how and why to copy a course version.

    Implications to consider when changing a course title

    Changing a course title has implications to consider, including but not limited to the following:

    • The new course title will be displayed everywhere the course title was previously displayed, including on the course page and in the catalog if the catalog feature is enabled in Site Settings. If there are learners that have taken the course, they should be informed of the title change so they can properly find the course if they’d like to revisit the content.

    Depending on the situation, the better solution may be to create a new course version within the existing course. Learn more about the difference between courses and course versions.
