Breaze Basic Concepts

Learn your way around the Breaze platform

Breaze creates an “ease of use” experience that allows users to browse and choose content just like they would movies on Netflix.  

All of your content will exist in one location in a way that allows you to organize it in a variety of intuitive categories (e.g., topics, mandatory, etc.).  

Think of it like this. A Section is a TV show and Pages are its episodes. Topics will be the different categories that your course will be put into.

Home Page
The first thing is that if you’re lost at any time and you want to start again, an easy way to get back to the home page is to click the logo at the top left.

Main Section

As an editor of the site, you will see a section/folder called Main Section. This is where ALL content will be housed under.

To access/add your content: 
1.    Click Lessons under Main Section.

On the left side are the Sections which represent your courses. If you select a course, you will see the pages/episodes on the right-hand side.
Another hint of where you are is the menu items.

Breadcrumbs and Moving Around
Breadcrumbs are a secondary navigation aid that helps you understand the relation between your location when editing. “Am I editing a page or a section?” 

If you open the menu, at the top left, you will have the path of where you are on the site.

You can then move around just by using the menu.

Edit Mode/Publish
Edit Mode is a setting that allows users to create and update content. If you are an Admin, you automatically have Edit Mode available. If you are a learner, you must have Edit Mode assigned to you by an Admin. For more info refer to User Management.

If you don’t see the Edit Mode toggle, you either have not been assigned as an Editor, or you’re on the homepage.

To turn on Edit Mode:
1.    Click the Menu icon at the top right of the screen.
2.    Put yourself in Edit Mode by clicking the toggle.
3.    Publish will be available once you make any changes to the site.
