With Totara’s wide range of activity types, you can build content directly in your LMS to provide context and additional content to your off the shelf content.

Learning content is licensed based on:
- Number/length/style of courses

In most cases, content is licensed annually. During the license period, you will receive any updates to the content (for example, where legislation changes).
