How does the LMS Branch feature works?

Branches allow you to divide your e-learning offering into different logical units (or 'departments'), each with its own courses, users, professors and branding (sub-domain, theme, logo, etc.). Branches can be a flat list or form a nested hierarchy.

Step 1: Login to your administrator account and select branches


Step 2: To create a new branch, click the  “Add Branch” button.



Step 3: Provide the desired name (1) for the branch, or for an optional parent branch (2). if this new branch you are creating would be a child branch of some other branch, select drop-down to indicate the specific parent branch.
.
Finally, you can provide the desired URL for the branch (3).



Step 4: The panel for editing an existing branch is similar to the “Add branch” panel but also contains tabs to see the branches' Users, Courses, Curriculums and extra Settings.



Step 5: The Users, Courses, and Curriculum tabs are simple tabular listings of the Users, Courses, and Curriculums assigned to the branch respectively



Step 6: In the Settings tab, you are able to view Options, LDAP and SAML. Regarding LDAP and SAML (1) check out the corresponding articles in our Knowledge Base. You can set up the way users login to this branch.



Regarding the Options, these are the settings that concern only this branch. You can set up the following:

Site name: The site name for this specific branch
Site Motto: The site motto for this specific branch
Language: The default language for this specific branch
Theme: The theme for this specific branch
Registered users limit: use this to set the total number of users allowed to be registered in this branch and its sub-branches. Leave blank for unlimited.
Concurrent users limit: use this to set the total number of users allowed to be logged in to the branch and its sub-branches at the same time. Leave blank for unlimited.
New users require approval: Check this if the system administrator should approve any new users that are created by the branch admin.
Course assignments deduct balance: Check this if you require the branch administrators to pay for the courses assigned to their users, using their balance.
