Editions

Overview

In Forma, the idea behind editions is to have many separate issues of the same master course, with diffferentdifferent start/end date and subscription groups.

All the editions of a course will inherit and share some features from the Master course:

  • Course Menu
  • Course Materials
  • Logo and general configuration
  • Certificates

To create a course with editions, you can select the desired course type upon course creation.

IMPORTANT: 
Do not convert an existing elearning course to editions: it won't be possible to manage the original subscribers that weren't associated to any edition
