Fuxam allows institutions to enhance their organizational structure through the strategic use of layers. Let's delve into the process of creating and managing layers to optimize your institution's efficiency.


1. Getting Started: The Structure Tab

Upon entering the Structure tab, you're greeted with the foundation for your institution's organization – layers. These layers serve as subsections, offering a structured view of various aspects such as faculty, year, and semester.


2. Crafting Layers: A Click Away

To create a layer, simply navigate to the top right and click on "Layer+." This straightforward action opens the door to a multitude of possibilities, allowing you to tailor your institution's structure to its unique needs.


3. Building Depth: Adding Sublayers

Enhance your layers by diving deeper into the organizational hierarchy. Click on the arrow while on your current layer to seamlessly create sublayers. This feature provides a nuanced structure, ensuring a comprehensive representation of your institution.


4. Enriching Content: Creating Courses

Elevate your institution's offerings by incorporating courses into the mix. With a click on the top right or the enter arrow, you can seamlessly introduce new courses to your layers.

5. Fine-Tuning: Navigating Layer Placement

Effortlessly organize your layers by clicking and holding on the dots to the left of each layer. Move them up or down, refining the hierarchy until it aligns seamlessly with your institution's vision and goals.

6. Customization: Editing Layers

Tailor your layers to perfection by accessing the settings. Click on the three dots on the right, opening up a world of possibilities. Rename layers, set specific starting and ending times – the power to customize is at your fingertips.

7. Safety Measures: Deleting Layers

While navigating the layers, accidents can happen. Fuxam introduces a fail-safe method for layer deletion. Click on the three dots, choose delete, and enter a code.

This ensures that layers are removed intentionally, preventing inadvertent disruptions to your institution's structure.


You are all set! By leveraging the features outlined above, you can navigate Fuxam with confidence, shaping your institution's layers to meet the demands of modern education.
