The Browse for Training hierarchy utilizes 1000 subjects, so if portal has over 1000 subjects, some subjects do not appear in the Subject panel. If vital subjects are missing from the panel, either reduce the number of subjects available in the portal or switch from Browse for Training to Learner Home, which does not limit subject usage.
