Hi all,

     We dropped DCS from our program about 6 months ago and we still have a couple of channels on the platform. Each one contains a few non-SCORM e-learning courses with some training materials. In your opinion, is there any reason to keep channels like these around? 

 

Thanks!

Hi @ErorrMsg !

Some folks prefer to use Channels, even without DCS, because of how the course tiles include the learner’s status (not started, in progress, completed) as opposed to catalog course tiles which do not.

If you prefer that, you can certainly keep the channels as-is.

@ErorrMsg I’m curious, we have DCS but don’t really make use of it beyond Channels, can you have and update Channels without being signed up for DSC? I was under the impression that that service was the only way to have them.

@JEntis Did you ever get your answer? Can we have Channels without out DCS? I would love to post videos without DCS.

@arottmann I did not get an answer, but this knowledgebase article explains the difference between Channels with and without DCS: Creating and managing channels – Docebo Help & Support

If you ONLY want to have formal content (courses and learning plans) in the Channel then you can use them without DCS. But if you need “informal” content (user-uploaded content such as individual PDFs, videos etc.) you have to have the paid DCS add-on. In our case we use informal content extensively in our Channels, so we have to keep DCS.
