Administrators can now rename Learning Objects in Captivate Prime. You can customize the terminologies for your convenience and facilitate better understanding and ease for everyone. Some of the Learning Objects whose names can be changed include Courses, Learning Plans, Learning Programs, Certifications, Job Aids, and Catalogs. For example, if you rename course to chapter, every instance where course is mentioned appears as chapter. To make changes, download the sample terminology CSV, edit it, and upload the same. This feature is only available in English.
