FAQs
Q: Can I add the same item to multiple Learnlists?
Yes. Items can appear in as many Learnlists as needed. Completion is tracked per Learnlist context.
Q: Can I add content from the Learn Amp Library?
Yes. When searching content, you can browse both your company's items and the Learn Amp Library.
Q: What happens if I remove an item from a Learnlist?
The item remains in your library—it's just no longer part of that Learnlist. Learner progress on that item may be affected depending on your completion settings (Absolute vs Dynamic).
Q: Can I add sections or dividers between content?
Yes! You can organise content into named sections. See "Organising Learnlists with Sections" for details.
