What are Knowledge Hubs?

Knowledge Hubs are collections of training content you create that learners can access and revisit. You can share them via your preferred distribution method, or embed them into your app/relevant access point.

Content can be categorised and assigned using Sections to help learners easily find the training that’s most relevant to them.

Assigning Sections to teams

Knowledge Hub content is assigned to teams via each Section. You can assign a Section to one or multiple teams. Only the team(s) you select will see that Section in their Knowledge Hub.

To assign a Section to a team, select the Section you’d like to assign from the lefthand menu.

Click Assignment in the righthand editor panel and search for or select the teams you’d like to assign the Section to.

Sharing your Knowledge Hub with learners

Once you have created your Knowledge Hub, you can choose how you’d like to share it with your learners, depending on your preferred delivery method and user setup. We recommend either of the following options:

Option 1: I want to add learners to eduMe teams when they access the Knowledge Hub

Choose this method if your learners don't already exist in eduMe / in a team, and you want them to self-enrol via the Knowledge Hub link you share.

Available authentication methods:

  • Seamless links
  • Self-sign up links
  • SSO links

Note: Each of these links require a team. Read our support articles on Seamless links and SSO links for more information

Recommended set up:

  • When you want to generate your link, click Share
  • Toggle Yes to the question 'If a user accessing this link is not assigned to any of the teams within the KH would you like us to assign them?'
  • Select the team(s) you'd like to assign to the Knowledge Hub
  • Copy your preferred link

Outcome:

You'll share one link with all learners. All learners will see the same content

Tip: It's also possible to assign different Sections to different teams using this method, however you will need to generate and manage multiple links for each team. We recommend an approach that only requires one link for simpler management

Option 2: My learners already exist in eduMe within teams

Choose this method if your learners already exist in eduMe / in a team.

Available authentication methods:

  • Seamless links
  • Self-sign up links
  • SSO links

Note: You don't need any team ID when generating these links; we can recognise which team(s) learners are part of from their unique identifier

Recommended set up:

When assigning Sections, you can assign different teams to each Section

Outcome:

You'll share one link with all learners. Learners will see different content that's relevant to their team
