Greetings ~ I am very new to Docebo and have a question about course categories. I have set up categories to closely align with my catalog titles and I turned on ‘use categories tree’ in catalogs to that users can filter using the categories. I have some courses that are assigned to 2 catalogs but since I can only assign them to 1 category, the category tree filter is not truly reflective of the content. How are others handling this? I tried duplicating the course so that one course was in one category and the other in the 2nd category but now the training history shows 2 records for the course - which is not great and muddys up the user’s completed section with 2 entries. Thank you in advance for sharing your ideas.
Unfortunately there is no other way since you can only assign a single category to a course. This is a limitation of categories. There are few ideas out there you can vote up if you like.
Another glitch with categories is that when you expose them to users, they will see all categories,even those that may not contain any courses they can/should be seeing so it’s not a great user experience.
Ideally we need a set of categories for users and different set for admins for course management and PU permissions.
