An announcement is a multimedia message (text, image or video) that an Administrator broadcasts to a defined set of users.
Administrator can broadcast announcements to learners informing them about the occurrence of an event or an activity. Announcement can be a combination of text, images, or videos. You can link learning objects like courses, learning programs and certifications to an announcement.

In the Message field, add the message for the announcement. You can also add a URL for announcements here. However, you must add the URL in the HTML form.
For example, <a href="http://www.w3schools.com" target="_blank">Visit W3Schools</a>.
