Overview: Once you have added categories to your workbook, Sections can now be included to divide the information within each category into smaller parts. Sections sit within your categories and contain the contents of your workbook.

Note: Some companies choose to rename 'Workbooks' to something that works better for their company. If workbooks is part of your package and you are having trouble locating it on your system, please get in touch with us.

Start from: The Step 3: Sections page within a new workbook.

Sections

Using the previously created categories, you can now decide on the sections you wish to include in your workbook. Note: If you haven't already added categories, then you have to do that first before you can continue. See Understand workbook categories for more information.

Select the Hide disabled sections toggle to hide any disabled sections from the list. Note: If this toggle is off, disabled sections will still be visible within the list further down the page and therefore can be re-enabled or edited.
Select beside the name of your previously added category to open the section options.
Enter a name for your section in the Section name field and Select to confirm and add. Each section added will appear in a list below this field.

Note: Once added in this list, the section will automatically be added as Type: text. You can update this in Edit Section below.

Select the Enabled toggle to make the section visible. Sections which are not enabled will be hidden from the workbook when in use.

Note: You can disable a section at any time by switching the toggle to off. This will remove it from the list but won't delete it, so it can be enabled again in the future.

Select Edit to edit the content for a section. See Edit section below for more details.
Select and drag each section up or down to re-order them.
Select Delete to delete a section.
Select Show Preview to review your edits. A Mapal One preview tab will open showing the workbook as a learner would view it. You must be signed in to the Mapal One learners portal in order to see the preview.
Select Save & Continue to confirm your changes OR select Previous to return to the previous page.

Edit section

Once you have added the sections and decided on your order, you can then add additional details to make each section within your workbook unique to your company.

Select Edit to open the content editor. This allows you to add text, images, videos, and live links to the section.
Use the Section name text field to edit the name for the section. Note: this field is required.
Use the Section Type dropdown list to select the type of response required.
- Text: These are free-type text boxes that allow the learner to enter a full answer.
- Radio buttons: These will display your own custom options for the learner to select from. The learner can select only one correct answer.
- Multiple choice: Allow the learner to select more than one correct answer.
- File: The learner will be given the option to upload a file or document.

Each Section Type has different settings that will shape the content you choose. See below for more details:

Section formats

Select the type of content you require from the Section type dropdown list. Once you have decided on the right format, you can add more detailed content. The content options are as follows:

Additional viewing options

After adding the section content, you now have one of two options available to add additional text within the section to support both the manager and the learner.

The layout varies depending on the section format you have selected:

Option 1

Scroll down to see Text area for Learners to elaborate on their selection from the options provided (You can add placeholder text in this box to help guide them): and select the toggle to reveal a text box the learner can use.

Note: Text added here will appear on Mapal One for learners to see. A manager can use this area to add prompts to help learners answer their questions. This text appears in grey and is deleted once learners start to enter their answer.

Select the Learner can view toggle to allow a learner to view the question.
Select the Training Manager can view toggle to allow a manager to view the learners answer.
Select the Enabled toggle to make the section visible in the workbook. Note: You can disable a section at any time by switching the toggle back to off. This will remove the question but won't delete it, so it can be enabled again in the future.
Select the Required for learner toggle if the learner is required to respond to the question.

Option 2

Select the Learner can view toggle to allow a learner to view the question.
Enter additional text for the learner into the Answer area for Learners box.

Select the Training Manager can view toggle to allow a manager to view the question.
Enter additional text for the training manager into the Answer area for Reviewers box.

Note: Text added here will appear on Mapal One for learners to see. This can be used for adding notes or prompts that can help managers and can be deleted when filling in their part of the form.

Select the Enabled toggle to make the section visible in the workbook. Note: You can disable a section at any time by switching the toggle back to off. This will remove the question but won't delete it, so it can be enabled again in the future.
Select the Required for learner toggle if the learner is required to respond to the question.
Select Save when you have finished OR select Close to discard the changes and return to the Edit Workbook Template page.

Repeat this process until you have added all the sections you require for your category.
