Heretto CCMS enables you to create courses by using the DITA learning and training specializations.

1. In the Content Library, create the folder structure for your course. See Create a Folder.
2. Create the following Learning maps in the appropriate Content Library folders. See Create a Learning Map and do the following:
   1. Create the Learning publication map.
      Learning publication maps contain course-level content. You will use this map to publish your course.
   2. Create Learning group maps.
      Learning group maps contain reusable module-level content.
   3. Create Learning object maps.
      Learning object maps contain reusable lesson-level content.
3. Append the Learning maps so that they reflect your course structure. See Add Existing Content to a Map and do the following:
   1. Append the Learning group maps to the Learning publication map as Learning group map references.
   2. Append the Learning object maps to the Learning group maps as Learning object map references.
4. Add instructional content to your course by doing the following:
   1. Create Learning topics in the appropriate Content Library folders. See Create a Learning Topic.
   2. Append the Learning topics to the appropriate Learning maps. See Add Existing Content to a Map
      Tip: When you append a Learning topic to a Learning map, Heretto CCMS automatically chooses the correct reference type.
   3. Optional: Reuse the existing technical content from your Content Library by doing any of the following:
   • Append your technical topics as Learning content references to the Learning maps. See Add Existing Content to a Map.
   • Reuse technical elements in your Learning topics.
