Customizing your learning
While these off the shelf Role Guides can be customized, any changes made to CUs collection will apply to the entire university system. As such, the training and development staff will take care in applying changes that reflect job roles on a larger system wide scale and not limited to one department or school.
If you or your supervisor find there are gaps in the existing role guides, you can supplement the Role Guide by creating custom collections or learning paths that bring together related courses.
