This guide explains how provider sharing works on edyoucated, which content types can be shared across organizations (tenants), what recipient organizations can and cannot do with shared content, and important dependencies for adaptive learning and skill profile templates.
Overview of provider sharing
Provider sharing allows one organization to share specific content entities with one or more other organizations while keeping authorship and control in the provider tenant. Recipients can make the shared content visible to their members but cannot edit the provider’s content itself.
How it works
Share by provider: A provider exposes selected content to one or more recipient organizations.
Recipient visibility: The recipient organization can browse and assign the shared content to its own users.
Data separation: Only content metadata and assets are shared; learner identities and progress data remain in their original tenant.
Revocation: The provider can revoke access at any time; the content is removed from the recipient’s organization going forward.
Which entities can be shared
Learning paths: Full courses (including standard, adaptive, SCORM, and linked types).
Skill taxonomy: Skills, chapters and atoms that power adaptive learning and skill profiles.
Skill profile templates: Templates recipients can use to create their own skill profiles in their tenant.
Warning: Avoid sharing content that contains sensitive data (e.g., personal information) as part of cross-organization catalogs. Only share learning materials that are appropriate for broader distribution.
Dependencies for adaptive learning and templates
Adaptive learning paths rely on a skill taxonomy. If an adaptive path is shared, the relevant taxonomy must also be shared to the recipient organization.
Skill profile templates depend on skills and chapters. The provider must share the taxonomy to enable recipients to use these templates.
If no templates are shared to a recipient organization, the option to create new skill profiles based on templates will not appear in the recipient’s interface.
Tip: If recipients cannot open skills or adaptive content, verify that the required skill taxonomy was shared to their tenant.
Working with duplicates of learning paths
Shared learning paths remain controlled by the provider organization. Recipients can only configure access and recommendation settings in their own tenant. To adjust certificates, other settings, or the publish status of a shared path, create a duplicate and work on your local copy.
Warning: Duplicating a shared learning path creates an independent copy. Changes made later by the provider to the original path will not propagate to your duplicate.
Enablement and requesting sharing
Cross‑organization sharing and the ability to create skill profile templates may be disabled by default for your organization. If you want to share learning paths, a skill taxonomy, or skill profile templates—or if you need the ability to create templates—contact your edyoucated account manager to enable these capabilities. Please include the names of all organizations that are involved and a short use case. Activation requires explicit approval by all involved organizations.
Troubleshooting and common scenarios
Cannot edit shared path: This is expected. Create a duplicate to customize locally.
Adaptive content not loading: Ensure the provider has shared the required skill taxonomy.
Templates option missing: Skill profile templates must be shared by the provider. If none are shared, the template-based creation option is hidden.
