Great news — this idea has been implemented! 🎉
Course owners and CPL Learning admins can now mark courses as obsolete — hiding outdated or duplicate courses from management views without deleting any data.
Here's how it works:
The "Mark obsolete" button appears on courses you own or manage
Clicking it shows a confirmation, clearly explaining what will change before you commit
Once marked, the course is immediately hidden from the course library across all companies that have shared access to it
An "Include obsolete" filter lets you still find and view the course if needed
You can reinstate the course at any time
A few things to keep in mind:
Owner-only action — only the company that owns the course can mark it obsolete or reinstate it
No data loss — marking a course obsolete does not delete any data, completion records or allocations
Learners are not affected — the obsolete flag only impacts admin and management views
This is available across both the old and new version of CPL Learning, as well as Course Builder.
Thank you for the feedback! 😊
