A group page is composed of sections called widgets that you can add, delete, reorder, and configure. A custom training section is a configurable widget that displays courses and sessions from a group catalog filtered by tags and in alphabetical order.
Group admins can create a custom training section by selecting the section title and the tags that filter the group catalog. If no courses or sessions in the group catalog are associated with the selected tags, the section is hidden.
- A group page can display multiple custom training sections.
- The configuration of the custom training section is not replicated in subgroups.
Learners can click the expander arrow to view up to 16 items, or click See all to access the search results page with the group catalog content filtered by the selected tags.
You can add multiple widgets to your group page to customize the learner experience. For the full list of widgets, see Configure the layout of a group page.
