Explain the "seat" vs. "administrator" vs. Course-taker Please
Hi Jen! Thanks for sharing your finds. And I'll add a little more context for anyone who comes across this discussion with similar questions. One condition -- I'll treat you like a beginner with great questions and not a 2-year-old. Be proud that you're learning a new software -- we're here to support you all the way!
The seats you purchase for Articulate 360 are for content authors only. You can add admins, but they don't use a seat, and they won't have access to create content. You can, however, share your work as you go by giving them the Share link at the top of your course.
You'll ideally want to publish and host your course on your own website or in a learning management system. You may not have access to an LMS as a non-profit. The Share link can be used for light viewing of the course, but the downside is that your learners' activity isn't tracked, and they always have to start over when they leave the course.
This article describes all of the options for sharing your content with learners. I hope that helps!
