certifications.<\/p>\n\n<p>But there is one element that is often underestimated and that, in reality, defines a large part of the user experience: <strong>the course catalog<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>In the latest webinar, Meritxell Rev\u00e9s, eLearning consultant, analyzed in detail how the catalog works in Moodle Workplace, what configuration decisions are key, and how it can become a strategic tool within corporate training.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

with a high volume of training<\/strong>, where access and organization cannot depend solely on manual enrollment.<\/p>\n\n<p>It is not just a simple list. It is a layer of visibility and access that directly impacts how people discover and consume training. <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"582\" src=\"https:\/\/tresipunt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_01-1024x582.png\" alt=\"workplace catalog\" class=\"wp-image-44922\" style=\"width:1016px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tresipunt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_01-1024x582.png 1024w, https:\/\/tresipunt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_01-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/tresipunt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_01-768x436.png 768w, https:\/\/tresipunt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_01-1536x872.png 1536w, https:\/\/tresipunt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/img_01.png 1595w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Moodle_vs_Moodle_Workplace_why_the_catalog_makes_the_difference\"><\/span><strong>Moodle vs Moodle Workplace: why the catalog makes the difference<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>Although Moodle LMS and Moodle Workplace share the same technological base, Workplace incorporates <strong>specific features for businesses:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Advanced organizational structure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dynamic enrollment rules<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Programs and certifications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multitenant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Process automation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>In this context, the catalog is not decorative.
