After you purchase a subscription package for your academy, you can manage the courses within this package and assign them to your employees.
Categorizing Subscription Courses
As an Admin, you have the option to manage the subscription courses within the Admin panel. You can select to have the relevant courses presented to the users who have been allocated a license, or categorize them and hide them from all users so that they can see only the courses assigned to them. Read more on the process here: Categorizing Purchased Courses
Assigning Subscription Courses
To assign the allocated licenses to your academy members, select the Team Workspace. On the left, under Self-Paced Training, select Assign Training.
In the panel that opens set the type to External Courses under Choose Type.
Use the search bar to find the training you want to assign, and select its name.
Then you can choose how you want to assign this course. You can read more on the process here: Assigning Training
Please note that your members should first be allocated a license and after that assigned with a course, or else they will not be able to access the assigned course.

Using Subscription Courses in Learning Paths
You can add external courses as steps to a learning path in the same way you would do it with regular courses!
Please note that in order for the purchased courses (that are part of the curriculum) to be assigned to the users, the sequence of the actions is important. Specifically, first, the user should get a license and then the curriculum assignment should take place. If a user gets assigned to the curriculum without having a license for the purchased courses, the purchased courses will not be assigned to them, even when the license allocation happens.
