Courses

There are two components to Courses:

Template

A Template is a standard form that is used as a starting point when creating Course Instances. For example, users with proper permissions can create a Template that is pre-populated with a standard class description that will pull into the newly created Course Instance automatically.

Note: For more information on permissions and managing Training Templates refer to the Online RMS Admin Guide..

Course Instance

A Course Instance is a specific course to which employees can be assigned. There could be multiple records of the same course, but with different dates or other information. When creating a Course Instance, with proper permissions, you can either choose an existing Template from a list or create a new Template and Course Instance at the same time without moving between menus to do both.

Note: The phrase Course Instance is often referred to as Course throughout this guide.
