Templates are a great tool to build a common framework for similar content. Templates help Content Creators save time and create a uniform structure for micro-credentials. System Admin have the ability to make several different types of templates. 

Templates are available when creating a micro-credential, not instructional materials or professional learning. 

System Admin are the only users who have permission to create or delete templates.

  • Templates include the titles of the modules or sections and empty content blocks in the sequence of your choosing.

Step 3:

Using a Template
