Creating a Course Overview
Information about role play courses and their components
In Brevity, a Course is a structured role play scenario designed to train users in specific sales skills, improve their ability to achieve their sales objectives, and ultimately increase revenue. Each course is composed of a series of customizable elements and activities that enable a comprehensive and interactive training experience. Those elements are:
- Basic Info
- Contexts
- Topics
- Personas
Courses provide the role play content for assignments, which can be assigned to users in order for them to practice the content created in the course. You can create and manage courses from the Courses tab in the Brevity navigation panel.

Note that both Team Admins and Group Admins can create courses, but there are differences regarding courses created by these user types.
Team Admins:
- Can create courses at the All Team level.
- Can create courses within any group.
Group Admins:
- Can create courses at the All Team level.
- Can create courses within their group.
Additionally, only Team Admins can share courses between groups, or from the All Team level to specific groups.
Our recommendation is that if a course will be used by multiple groups, or if your organization does not use groups to organize users, courses should be created at the All Team level by a Team Admin. If a course will be used by only one group, the course should be created at that group level by either a Team Admin or a Group Admin. For more information, see:
