Create and design exercises

Use exercises to practice, for example, the execution of a process as learned in a lesson.

You can create exercises in several ways. The basic flow is:
  1. Create the exercise.
  2. Assign the exercise to a business process.
  3. Assign the business process exercise to a module, topic, or lesson in the module hierarchy.
You can do two or all steps in one go:
  • Directly create an exercise for a business process.
  • Generate a module. On module generation, exercises are created and assigned to business processes. These business process exercises are assigned to a module, topic, or lesson in the module hierarchy.
Each exercise that you create is stored in the 'exercises library' which you can view on the Exercises page. You can assign these exercises to a business process.
