Complete a workbook
Working with a workbook involves many actions:
Complete a template
Templates are pages with a pre-defined structure. They will differ depending on their purpose and the content they are asking you to gather. Read more on completing a template.
Add a placeholder page
A workbook may require you to use one of the creative tools to add an Activity log, Blog, Collection or Page within your workbook. Read more on adding a placeholder page.
A workbook can also contain Activity Logs and Collections with predefined criteria.
Add evidence
A workbook may require you to attach other assets to provide background context or proof of your work. You can add evidence anywhere there is an +Add button. Read more on adding evidence.
Complete a capability
A workbook may contain capability blocks, requiring you to self-assess your skills, knowledge or behaviours and provide evidence. Read more on completing a capability.
Mark & track progress
Workbooks typically contain many pages and it's necessary to keep track of what is yet to be started, in progress but incomplete, and pages fully complete. Read more about tracking progress.
