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
  • Questions (multiple choice, open text, true/false)
  • File uploads and interactive elements
