What is a Course?
A Course is Juno’s main content type for structured learning. Courses contain sections — each section holds content like text, images, videos, embedded resources, and questions.
Learners progress through sections and complete the course based on your configured completion criteria.
Course structure
A Course is made up of sections. Each section can contain:
- Rich text content
- Embedded videos and images

- File uploads and interactive elements
