Custom Videos can be added to Fusion courses to help support the course material and to make the course a little more personal for your users.
Using the upgraded MetaLearning Elements library, you can browse the available content, add this to your course as required, and now, also upload your own Custom Videos.
- First of all, follow the steps outlined within the following article to begin the course creation - MetaLearning 6.0 - How Do I Create a Fusion Course? – MetaCompliance
When you are then ready to add your Custom Video, select the +Add Learning Elements option within the relevant section on your course.
- Next, select Custom under the available Elements:
Once selected, you will then have the option to either:
- Select any previously uploaded videos, or
- Upload new
(1) If the required video has been previously uploaded, you can select the Add + option to insert this video into your Course.
(2) If the video has not been previously uploaded, then you can follow the steps below to add this option.
- Select Add Custom:
- To add your video, enter the relevant information into the required fields:
- Name: Enter the video Name to help users understand what the video relates to.
