Course and exam catalogues
Maintain approved reusable definitions, ownership, target audience, prerequisites, objectives, duration, evaluation, and classification.
Courses and examinations
Turn learning plans into coordinated courses, examinations, calendars, and delivery.
BaseCamp connects catalogues, learning tracks, prerequisites, training calendars, instructors, providers, resources, locations, capacity, registration, attendance, assignments, examinations, rooms, seating, and communication. Learning teams can plan and operate online, classroom, hybrid, instructor-led, self-paced, or secure local delivery from one governed structure.

Overview
Connect what the organization intends to teach with what learners actually experience
A course catalogue describes potential learning. A training calendar commits people, time, instructors, resources, locations, and capacity. An offering then turns that commitment into a real learner experience. When these layers are mixed together, organizations duplicate course definitions, lose historical consistency, and struggle to compare delivery across dates, locations, providers, or formats.
BaseCamp separates reusable course and examination definitions from scheduled offerings. Catalogues can be organized for different specializations, divisions, departments, audiences, timeframes, or organizational goals. Learning tracks can arrange selected courses into role-based or development paths with prerequisites and completion expectations.
Training calendars then specify when and where learning occurs, who delivers it, which resources apply, whether it is online, classroom, hybrid, instructor-led, self-paced, or available through secure local access, and what capacity or fee information should be considered. Offering-level controls support enrollment, attendance, content, assignments, examinations, supervision, rooms, seating, results, and communication without altering the reusable catalogue definition.
Connected process
Move from reusable definition to completed offering
Separating planning layers preserves consistency while allowing each delivery instance to reflect real operational conditions.
- 01
Define the catalogue item
Create the course or examination purpose, description, audience, prerequisites, learning objectives, duration, materials, evaluation approach, and ownership.
- 02
Place it in a learning track
Connect relevant items into a development sequence for roles, professions, specializations, compliance programs, or individual plans.
- 03
Schedule the offering
Set dates, times, mode, instructor, provider, venue, room, capacity, fees, resources, registration window, and communication.
- 04
Enroll and prepare learners
Apply eligibility, approvals, priority, prerequisite, capacity, waiting, and preparation requirements; confirm access and instructions.
- 05
Deliver and monitor
Track attendance, content access, participation, assignments, instructor activity, examinations, rooms, seating, supervision, and exceptions.
- 06
Close and preserve history
Finalize attendance, results, completion, feedback, materials, provider records, costs, and the authoritative historical offering record.
Capabilities
Capabilities for planned and delivered learning
Course and examination operations share a planning foundation while retaining the controls appropriate to each delivery type.
Learning tracks
Arrange learning into structured development paths with sequence, role relevance, mandatory or elective status, and progress expectations.
Training calendars
Publish offerings with timing, mode, instructor, provider, location, capacity, registration, resources, fees, and status.
Digital and blended delivery
Support online, classroom, hybrid, instructor-led, self-paced, multimedia, assignment, and secure local-access scenarios.
Attendance and participation
Record attendance or participation evidence, manage exceptions, support completion decisions, and preserve the delivery history.
Exam operations
Configure schedules, duration, timers, eligibility, supervision, online access, rooms, seating, grading, communication, and results.
Governance
Keep catalogue standards, delivery responsibility, and historical records clear
A strong delivery model defines who may create, approve, schedule, change, conduct, and close learning activity.
Catalogue governance
Assign owners for course and exam definitions, prerequisites, objectives, materials, review cycles, versioning, retirement, and equivalencies.
Calendar governance
Define scheduling authority, capacity, venue, provider, instructor, fee, registration, cancellation, and change-notification rules.
Delivery governance
Clarify instructor, administrator, learner, supervisor, proctor, and support responsibilities for attendance, content, assignments, examinations, and incidents.
Closure governance
Require final attendance, results, feedback, cost, material version, exceptions, and status reconciliation before an offering is closed.
Implementation readiness
Pilot a complete offering before publishing a large catalogue
Testing one realistic online or classroom journey exposes dependencies more effectively than loading hundreds of ungoverned course titles.
Standardize catalogue data
Agree naming, classification, ownership, prerequisites, objectives, duration, evaluation, materials, and review rules.
Define delivery models
Document online, classroom, hybrid, instructor-led, self-paced, examination, room, seating, attendance, and support requirements.
Configure calendars and controls
Set offerings, capacity, registration, approvals, notifications, instructors, providers, venues, resources, fees, and statuses.
Run end-to-end pilots
Test discovery, eligibility, registration, preparation, access, attendance, assignments, examinations, results, closure, and reporting.
Scale with governance
Expand catalogues and calendars only after owners can maintain quality, content, instructors, providers, support, and history.
Operational value
A single operating view across catalogue, calendar, and delivery
BaseCamp helps learning teams preserve reusable standards while managing the practical differences of each offering.
Flexible delivery
Coordinate online, classroom, hybrid, instructor-led, self-paced, multimedia, and secure local-access learning.
Reusable definitions
Keep catalogue and track information consistent while offerings vary by date, location, instructor, provider, capacity, and audience.
Operational history
Retain registration, attendance, content, assignment, examination, result, communication, and closure information for later analysis.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about courses and examinations
Can BaseCamp distinguish a course definition from a scheduled offering?
Yes. A reusable catalogue item can be scheduled many times with different dates, delivery modes, instructors, providers, locations, capacity, resources, and participants.
Can courses be instructor-led or self-paced?
Yes. BaseCamp can support instructor-led, self-paced, online, classroom, hybrid, and secure local delivery according to the configured model.
Can examinations use rooms and seating plans?
Yes. Examination offerings can include rooms, capacity, seating, scheduling, supervision, duration, eligibility, and result controls where included in scope.
Can learners upload assignments or access multimedia resources?
Yes. Course offerings can include materials, multimedia, uploads, downloads, assignments, and controlled content access according to the delivery design.
Can a course appear in multiple learning tracks?
Yes. A governed catalogue item can contribute to different role, profession, specialization, compliance, or development tracks without unnecessary duplication.
How should cancelled or changed offerings be handled?
The implementation should define status, approval, notification, transfer, refund or cost implications, attendance history, and reporting rules so changes remain traceable.
