As an Admin or Training Manager, you can decide whether a Course will be private or public. This diagram illustrates how training visibility is determined for Courses, Curricula, and Events. Visibility controls who can see a training item in the platform—but it does not automatically enroll learners.
Private Mode
If your course is in Private mode, only users who either received an invitation or were assigned the Course can see it.
Please note: If a user received a shared invitation link won't be able to see the Course.
You can send invitations from the Course Administration Panel either to friends within Schoox or to people outside of Schoox. You can send invitations for free or via paid Courses.
Public Mode
If your course is in Public mode, everyone who has access to the category that this Course is under will be able to see and enroll in it. You can select if you want the Course to only be available to your Employees or External Members as well, by selecting the relevant option on the Course manage page.

You can then distinguish the published courses (purchased, public, private) on your Course listings page, by the descriptions under each Course's name.
Courses in the 'Without Category' Category
The visibility and assignment options for these courses depend on whether the course is set as Public or Private.
Public Courses
Learner access: All learners can view and self-enroll in public courses listed under Without Category.
Manager access: Unit Managers and Heads of Above Units can view and assign these courses, provided they have the appropriate permissions.
Private Courses
Learner access: Only Admins and users who have been directly assigned can view private courses listed under Without Category.
Manager access: Unit Managers and Heads of Above Units can assign these courses, provided they have the appropriate permissions.
Tip
If you want to ensure that a specific training object cannot be assigned by anyone, place it in a Private Category with visibility restricted to Admins/Content Managers only.
