The core of OLAT are its learning resources. The term learning resources is used for filing learning content on the one hand (via the tab «Learning resources») and for the learning content stored there on the other hand (e.g. courses, tests, Wikis, etc.). This chapter introduces you to various types of learning resources and explains how to search for such resources. First this will be exemplified from the point of view of an ordinary OLAT user without author rights; then from the point of view of an OLAT user with such rights.

Each learning resource will be explained in the detailed view by means of metadata. These metadata give further information on e.g. who has access to learning content. The owner of a learning resource can modify the name of his learning resource, its description or access as well as add other owners.
