Editing Published Enablement Programs That Users Are Taking
You can modify some details of a published program even after users start taking it. For
some simple changes to names, titles, and descriptions, you can edit and save the program without
disrupting the user experience or the integrity of your analytics. Other changes require you to
remove users and unpublish programs, which can be disruptive.

Edits That Don’t Affect Analytics
For these types of edits to published Enablement programs, users receive your changes
after you save. The changes don’t disrupt your analytics.
What if you want to edit a part of a published Enablement program other than the titles
and descriptions of the program, outcome, milestones, and exercises? These types of changes can be
more disruptive to the user experience and the integrity of your analytics. Review the options
available for handling these types of changes.
Option 1: Retire the Program (Recommended)
To avoid disrupting analytics for these types of changes, we recommend that you let currently
enrolled users complete the program. Then, retire the program, and start a new program with
the updated details and a new set of users. The new program has separate analytics.
Option 2: Unpublish, Edit, and Republish the Program
Alternatively, you can edit the program for these types of changes at the same time that users
are taking it, which disrupts your analytics. In this case, users only receive the changes
after you remove users, unpublish the program, make your changes, republish the program, and
add users back. These steps remove any program progress made by users who are still taking
the program. Analytics from users who completed the program are no longer retained.
However, in some cases, editing a published program can be worth the extra work.
If the program is new, or few users are taking it, then editing the program perhaps
outweighs the effort of rolling out a new program.
If you’re replacing a measure for an outcome or milestone, or you’re correcting an invalid
measure, then progress analytics are disrupted anyway.
