Taksha LMS Terminology Glossary

Understanding Taksha LMS's content hierarchy makes every other part of the platform easier to use. Below is a full glossary of core terms, along with how they relate to one another.

1. Program A Program is the highest level of content grouping—a bundle of multiple courses arranged in a specific sequence. Programs are ideal for structured journeys like onboarding tracks or multi-stage certification paths, where learners need to complete several courses in order.
2. Course: A course is a single unit of learning content, made up of chapters and topics. Courses can exist independently or as part of a larger program.
3. Chapter: A chapter is a section within a course that groups related topics together. Chapters help break long courses into manageable, logically organized parts.
4. Topic: A topic is the smallest content unit—a single lesson within a chapter. Each topic typically contains one specific piece of learning content, such as a video or document.
5. Quiz: A quiz is an assessment tool used to test learner understanding. Quizzes can be attached to a specific chapter or a full course or created as a standalone independent quiz.
6. Independent Quiz: An independent quiz is a standalone assessment not linked to any course—useful for entry tests, skill assessments, or quick knowledge checks that don't require a full course structure.
7. AssignCourse The feature is used to enroll learners into a course or program, either individually or in bulk.
8. Progression Risk A dashboard flag identifying learners who are behind schedule on a course (course delay) or program (program delay).
9. Understanding the hierarchy: The full structure flows like this: Program → Course → Chapter → Topic → Quiz. Keeping this hierarchy in mind when planning content helps ensure your courses stay organized and scalable as your content library grows.
