Course categories are helpful for organizing courses by whatever variable groups of courses have in common.

Creating and Assigning Course Categories #

Course Category Archives #
When you create a new course category you also creating a page that will display the course tiles of the courses in that category. This is called a course category archive page.
To view all your course category archive pages, navigate in WordPress to LifterLMS > Courses > Course Categories.
There you will see a screen like this:
