Tribal Habits contains a library of ready-made training topics. You can use these topics to accelerate your roll-out of training content or as templates (or inspiration) when creating your own training modules.
We encourage you to have a look at what's available by going to Admin → Knowledge → Library. You may end up saving yourself some time by discovering you don't need to create certain content as it may already be available in our library!
You can also use the library to see what content has already been created and made active in your own portal.
What types of topics and articles are available and how can I filter or search?
Our library contains a number training materials on compliance and development subjects. Some modules are multi-part ('Topics') whereas others are shorter, single page modules ('Articles').
In the library, you can also see 'active' training modules that have been created in your own portal.
The library can be filtered as follows:
Library - Compliance - Use this option to see compliance topics on health and safety, fair work legislation, key management processes, information security and more. Topics comply with Australian legislation and in some cases, New Zealand legislation (content with 'NZ' in the title).
Library - Capability - Use this option to see development topics on personal and business development, leadership, management, relationship management and more, as well as topics on core issues of COVID-19 safety, mentoring, diversity and coaching. There are also dedicated modules for use with clients and prospects.
Topics / Full modules - Use this option to see topics (multi-section training modules).
Articles / Mini lessons - Use this option to see articles (short, single-page training modules).
[Your portal's name] Knowledge - Use this option to see active topics or articles created within your portal.
Note: If you have copied (as opposed to 'imported') a library topic or article into your portal and made it 'active', you would see both the library and your copied version of the topic or article in the library.
In addition to filtering the library page, you can also search for modules using the search box or by creating a custom URL using a keyword.
Type a keyword into the search box and press 'Enter' on your keyboard or add your keyword to the end of the URL and refresh the page (for example, 'org/admin#/knowledge/library/bullying'). The page will then return any topics or articles that include your keyword in their title or overview.
Creating a keyword URL may be useful if you need to direct admins from certain locations to the library page showing pre-filtered results.
Note: If there is a topic you would like to see in the library which is not currently present, please also reach out with your thoughts - we prioritise new topics to suit client requests. Learn more about suggesting a new library topic here.
How are library topics and articles created?
We create our library topics and articles using exactly the same Creator tools as in any Tribal Habits portal.
Our content is created internally, using our own expert topic creators, although we sometimes partner with external experts to provide specialist content. Compliance topics are then reviewed by external subject matter experts.
Our topics use all the power of Tribal Habits elements, so you can expect plenty of interaction and practical knowledge. Each topic is complete with images, narration, polls and more. Most topics have on-the-job activities as well while compliance topics have assessments.
Each library topic appears in your branding too, using your colours and logo. It looks like you create them!
How can we enable a library topic or article in our portal?
When reviewing topics in either library, you will also see an option to 'Import' or 'Copy' a library topic.
When you import a topic, the latest version of that topic is brought into your portal and will appear in your Topics list (as a Draft topic). You cannot edit an imported topic, but it will appear in your branding and you can manage all settings (like due dates and notifications). Imported topics retain a link back to our library, so you can update to the latest version of any topic as and when we make changes.
When you copy a topic, we create a new version of the topic in your portal based on the current version in the library. You can edit a copied topic, but it will lose its link to the library version and cannot receive further updates from us.
You can combine imported or copied library topics with your own topics into a pathway too. Since all topics - your topics and our library topics - are created using the same tools and appear in your branding, they are easily interchangeable. In fact, you can create a pathway that is only library topics for instant, branded training in seconds!
Note: In addition to the ready-made content in our library, we also have an extensive variety of templates available for you to use as a starting point for creating your own content.
