Glossary

The Glossary interaction can be used to create a set of terms, a reference book or a catalog with a handy navigation. For instance, you can build a catalog of insurance products to immerse the trainees in the topic. Or, if a remote learning department is launched in a branch office, you can prepare a glossary of eLearning terms to help the employees speak the same language.
