Learn Course Menu

Each course will have a left-hand menu for navigation. This menu will remain on the side of the screen on all of your course pages. You can choose to collapse this menu if you require more screen space (see video below). There is also a breadcrumb bar above this to help you see which section of the course you are currently viewing.
