Organising Content with Learnlists and Channels
Overview
Learn Amp offers three key ways to group and organise content: Learnlists, Channels, and Libraries. Each method is designed to help Admins and Learners easily navigate and engage with content such as Items, Assessments, and Surveys. These flexible structures mirror familiar formats like playlists and streaming services to make content consumption intuitive and enjoyable.
Learnlists
Learnlists are collections of learning content—like playlists for learning. They can include Items, Assessments, Surveys, and more.
Key Features
Customisable titles, images, and descriptions
Can lock item order so users have to complete one item before progressing to the next
Easy editing with drag and drop (beta)
Types of Learnlists
1. Unlocked Learnlists
Use this format when content does not need to be completed in a specific order.
Design Features:
Left-hand navigation panel
'Next item' arrows for smooth progression
2. Locked Learnlists
Users must complete each item in order to unlock the next. Perfect for compliance or mandatory training.

Progress tracking
Channels
Channels present learning content in a visually engaging, carousel-style format—similar to streaming platforms.
Key Features
Combine Items, Learnlists, Quizzes, Surveys, and more
Fully customisable labels and layouts
Channels are used to surface specific content types or themes to different user groups.

Role- or department-specific Channels
