You can upload your own learning content straight into your Parim Academy Library, including PDFs, documents, videos and other files specific to your organisation. Once uploaded, the content sits in your Library like any other learning. You can assign it to people, add it to Pathways or group it into Roadmaps.
How to upload a file from your computer
Click Add content at the top of the screen.
In the panel that opens, choose Upload a file.
Select Click to upload and browse to your file, or drag and drop the file into the box.
Wait for the upload to finish.
On the first step of Edit details, enter a Title and choose a Content type (for example Article, Document or Video). You can also add a Thumbnail and Cover image, and select a Category so people can find the content in the Library.
Click Next and add a Description so learners understand what the content covers and why it matters. You can also set a Level (experience level), the Skills learnt, and the Learning time, which is a length value plus a unit such as minutes, hours, lessons or pages. Setting a level and learning time helps you classify content and assign it to the right Teams. It also lets Managers and Admins track learning hours.
Click Next to reach the final step and enter the Author. If the author is unknown, use your organisation’s name. You can also set a Date published, mark the content as Requires purchase and add a price, restrict it to specific Teams, and add Tags to make it easier to find.
Click Upload to finish. The button name includes the content type, for example, Upload article. Your content is now in the Library.
Tip: In a hurry? After entering a title and content type, click Quick add to save the content immediately and complete the remaining details later.
Things to keep in mind
Title and Content type are required before you can save. Everything else can be added or edited later.
Level, Learning time, Skills learnt and Tags are optional, but they make content easier to classify, assign and search for.
If SCORM is enabled for your organisation, an Upload SCORM option also appears in the Add content panel next to file upload.
