The Curriculum Categories help you organize your lessons, assignments, and quizzes, making it easier to manage and filter your course content. This guide explains how to create and manage Lesson, Assignment, and Quiz Categories In BuddyBoss Courses. Curriculum categories are shared across Lessons, Assignments, and Quizzes, so any category you create is automatically available when creating or editing any of these content types.

Regardless of where you access it, you’ll be taken to the same Curriculum Categories management page.
