Creating course catalogues in Smart Arena is useful for organizing and managing e-learning content effectively. Catalogues allow administrators to group related courses into specific categories, making it easier for learners to navigate and access the training they need. This approach enhances the learning experience by ensuring that users only see the most relevant content while streamlining the process for administrators to manage course availability and enrollment.
To create a new Catalogue go to Catalogue list tab under Course catalogues in the navigation menu. On this page, there is a list of all created catalogues.
