A learning path is a pathway that guides learners through a set of modules (courses/materials) to be undertaken progressively (from lower- to higher-order thinking skills) to acquire the desired knowledge and skills on a subject by the end of the pathway.

## Editorial process for Learning Paths in TeSS
There are several roles associated with learning paths, see the [Definitions page](../overview/definitions#roles).

Collection
Collections can be thought of as folders in which users may collect particular training materials or events, from the full catalogue available within TeSS to address their specific training needs.
See [Collections in TeSS](../content/collections) for details.

Content provider
Entities (such as academic institutions, non-profit organisations, portals) that provide training materials of relevance.

In the context of TeSS, a training material is a link to a single online training material sourced by a content provider (such as a text on a Web page, presentation, video) along with description and other meta information (e.g. ontological categorization, keywords).

Materials can be added manually or automatically harvested from a provider's website.

Workflow
Training workflows in TeSS are visual, step-by-step protocols that allow users to navigate materials in TeSS in topic- or task-related ways.
For example, they may encapsulate typical stages of particular kinds of data analysis (protein sequence analysis, structure analysis, etc.), where each stage/node in the workflow represents a given analysis step and links to the corresponding training resources.
See [Workflows in TeSS](../content/workflows) for details.

To facilitate this journey, learning paths aim to structure, within simple visual workflows, the set of relevant training resources that trainees need to study in order to accomplish their learning objectives.
