Hi all,

Someone wants to change a course name slightly. I'm just wondering are there any implications to making this change?

We don't want to adversely affect anyone who has already been on the course.

thanks

Tom Ireland

Hi, Larry

There shouldn't be any issue with changing the course name. It's linked to a unique course id in the database, so other areas where the course is used e.g. Certifications, Programs, etc., will still link to the course and display the updated name.

For those already enrolled it will show as changed, so just bear it mind if there is a drastic change in the naming; it might confuse some people, but then it's just about communicating the change so folk are aware.

I hope that's useful for you.

Cheers.

Tom
