A course is a series of lessons that work together to achieve a much larger goal.
We use [Bloom’s Taxonomy](https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/guidelines/blooms-taxonomy/)
to define the overall objective of the course. Once that objective has been defined,
this is then broken down into smaller objectives again using BloomBloom's Taxonomy
Bloom’s Taxonomy is a way of writing lesson plan objectives using specific words
so that the objectives can be measured. See https://make.wordpress.org/training/
handbook/guidelines/blooms-taxonomy/ for more details.’s taxonomyTaxonomy A taxonomy
is a way to group things together. In WordPress, some common taxonomies are category,
link, tag, or post format. [https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies#Default_Taxonomies](https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies#Default_Taxonomies)..
These smaller objectives become part of a unit that will consist of lessons that
build upon the overall objective.

Once the content has been planned and chunked into units and lessons within the 
unit, it is then drafted in Sensei. After it has been drafted, it is checked and
launched in BetaBeta A pre-release of software that is given out to a large group
of users to trial under real conditions. Beta versions have gone through alpha testing
in-house and are generally fairly close in look, feel and function to the final 
product; however, design changes often occur as part of the process. for review 
within the #training community. Once tested, by the #training community, final changes
are made and the course is launched.
