Manage Programs and Cohorts

The Manage Programs & Cohorts page enables administrators to view, create, and edit program and cohort learning objects (LOs). Program and cohort LOs leverage the structure of a curriculum with the connectivity of a community to engage learners. Program LOs are built to include a designated Connect community and curriculum-like coursework. Each instance of a program is a cohort.

The Manage Programs and Cohorts page is only available for organizations using the Learning module and redesigned Connect.

To manage programs and cohorts for guided social learning, go to Admin > Tools > Learning > Catalog Management > Programs and Cohorts.
