General Functions: Info Page

What's the purpose of the info page?

Each learning resource has an info page. This page contains information provided by the system, as well as details that the owners of the learning resource can add themselves. These are available to interested users as soon as the learning resource is published (regardless of a booking), even before they access the learning resource. This makes sense if you want to inform the target audience in advance, for example, if the course involves a fee.

Info page of a course with 26 numbered elements, from reference, title and teaser via description and learning objectives to My data, Review and Technical information

Note

If you, as a participant, can hardly find any information on the info page, it is because your instructor has not set up this page (yet). Ask your instructor about it.
