Content marketplace
Learning Manager now offers Content Marketplace for you to explore and purchase trainings. Explore 70,000+ courses that cover a wide range of topics, available in multiple formats. Choose from curated playlists that cater to a vast variety of roles and meet your learning and upskilling needs.
In the Administrator app, there is a new option Content Marketplace, which you’ll find on the left panel.
Users can purchase from curated playlists covering various topics or purchase the entire catalog.
On the page, you can see two tiles, Enterprise Training and Creative Cloud Training. The first tile launches the marketplace, using which you can acquire courses for your learners. The latter launches the content catalog.
The Enterprise Training page in the Administrator app enables you to invite users and download the Express Interest report, and also purchase the entire catalog or curated playlist.
Invite users
Invite users to Content Marketplace to explore content and express interest. As an administrator, you can either invite all learners in the account or invite selected learners. To grant access to learners, you must invite them.
A learner can also be revoked from the Content marketplace option. To revoke access, click the Revoke Access link. Users will no longer be able to see the Contet Marketplace page in the learner app.
This option is selected by default for all new accounts. For existing accounts, the Administrator must invite the users to explore the marketplace.
Purchase
You get unlimited access to the entire library of courses. Click the Purchase button to download a Purchase Request form.
Enter the number of seats to purchase
Specify the number of seats for which you want to purchase the courses for. Download the purchase request form and then send the form to the sales team of Learning Manager.
The team will then validate the information and then generate a key, which will be provided to you. This is the activation key using which you’ll grant access to your users to the content offering.
After the key is generated by the CSAM team, the Administrator can use the key to import the courses, and migrate the courses into the existing catalog or the new catalog.
During migration of courses, the status displays as Importing Courses. Once the migration completes, the Administrator gets a notification that migration is complete and successful.
The Licenses section then displays all the licenses that are acquired for the account.
The Administrator can see the links of the purchased catalogs in the Catalog Overview page.
Once the courses are added to the catalog, the Administrator can then grant access to the trainings to various user or user groups.
Grant access to training to users and user groups
Express interest report
When a learner clicks Express interest to Catalog in the Learner app, the interest is recorded in an Express interest report. The Administrator can download the report. The report (csv) contains the following fields:
- Name of the catalog
- Number of users expressing interest
- Email of the user expressing interest
Email templates
To support this workflow, there are three email templates that you can use:
-
Content Activation Successful: This is sent when purchsing a content with a key name is successful. All training that is purchased is now available.
-
Automated User Upload Failure: This is sent when the auto-update of CSV in the account fails for some reason.
-
Invite Users to Explore Content: This is an invitation email sent to learners when the Administrator purchased courses. The administrator can view the Express Interest report to understand the overall requirements and take the purchase decision.
-
Purchased courses cannot be added in recurring certificates.
-
Purchased courses cannot be shared to peer accounts.
-
Purchased courses can be consumed by all users who get access to it. Configure the catalog visibility to restrict the visibility of purchased courses to limited users.
-
Purchased courses cannot be consumed once the activation key expires. Please purchase/activate another key to allow consumption.
