The "breadcrumb" trail shown at the top of a course indicates the category hierarchy leading to it eg:
Home > All Courses > Special Courses > This Course Name
Home > All Programs > Combined Programs > This Program Name
... but on entering a Course in the Program, the user will see eg:
Home > All Courses > Special Courses > First Course of Program
... and so the breadcrumb does not show a path back to the Program they are in. This is confusing for the user and seemingly almost pointless; but we think there is a real need to provide a link back to the parent program (and presumably first to hide the breadcrumb in the theme if it can't be made useful).
Is there a way to show an obvious way back to the start of a Program? Perhaps there is a block which can be configured to show a list of the user's programs; or a fixed URL which will go to the parent program - it must be possible to calculate this; has it been done already somewhere?
