Course Console - Online Content

The online content training type displays on the Course Console page for third party online content delivered through a subscription but hosted on the provider's servers. Note: Currently the online content training type is only available for the Coursera for Business integration and the edX for Business integration.

To access the Course Console, go to Admin > Tools > Learning > Catalog management > course catalog and then search for a specific LO using the Search the Catalog field. After you have found the LO for which you want to view the Course Console, click on the LO's title. This navigates you to the Course Console page for that LO.
