What the Course Catalog is
The Course Catalog is a row on the CEC & Education page in Verinode HQ. It lists every active continuing education (CEC) course your association currently has published, one tile per course, so association leadership can see at a glance what's available to members without opening a separate learning system.
Each tile in the row shows three things about a course:
- CEC credit value ("N CEC")
- Course title
- Category, written in plain language rather than a raw label
This catalog is informational. It's how HQ confirms what's live and available; it is not where courses are created, edited, or delivered.
Where to find it
In the HQ sidebar, open CEC & Education (the certification icon). Directly at hq.verinode.ai/education. The page is organized top to bottom as:
- A hero panel showing total CEC credits awarded this cycle, with three secondary figures: active courses, members behind on CEC, and members earning credits.
- Members Behind on CEC, a row of roster members who haven't yet met the cycle's credit target.
- Course Catalog, the row this article covers.
How each course tile reads
Every tile in the Course Catalog row carries a neutral copper accent, which visually separates it from the Members Behind on CEC row above (those tiles use red or yellow accents to flag who needs attention). The catalog isn't flagging a problem; it's just showing what's on offer.
On each tile:
- Label, "N CEC". The CEC credit value assigned to that course. If a course was published without a credit value set, it shows 0 CEC until one is added.
- Headline, the course title. If a course was published without a title, it shows as Untitled course until one is added.
- Sub-line, the category, humanized into a readable label (for example, a raw category token renders as ordinary title-cased words, not the underlying code). If no category was set on the course, the sub-line reads General.
There's no additional metadata line under the category, and no enrollment count, completion rate, or per-member breakdown on these tiles. The Course Catalog answers "what's available," not "who's taken it", member-level progress lives in the Members Behind on CEC row and the hero figures above it.
Ordering and how many courses show
Courses are listed alphabetically by title. The row displays up to 12 courses. If your association has published more than twelve active courses, only the first twelve alphabetically appear in the row; there's currently no scroll-to-load-more or filter control on this row beyond that limit.
Only active courses appear here. If a course has been retired or otherwise marked inactive, it drops out of this row entirely, there's no toggle on this page to view retired courses.
What populates the catalog
The Course Catalog reflects your association's own published courses in real time; there's no separate publish-and-sync step. As your association's education administrator adds a course, sets its CEC credit value, assigns it a category, and marks it active, it appears in this row on the next page load. Remove or deactivate a course, and it disappears from the row the same way.
Nothing here is drawn from other associations, franchise networks, or any outside benchmark. The catalog is entirely your association's own content.
Empty state
If your association hasn't published any active courses yet, the row shows this message instead of tiles:
"Courses will appear here as the association publishes its CEC catalog."
This is the expected state for a newly onboarded association HQ before its first course goes live. It's not an error and doesn't mean data is missing elsewhere on the page, the hero panel and Members Behind row can still show member and credit figures independently of whether any courses are in the catalog yet.
How to use it
- 1Open CEC & Education from the HQ sidebar.
- 2Scan the Course Catalog row to confirm the courses you expect to be live are actually showing as active, with the right credit value and category.
- 3Cross-check against the hero panel's Active courses figure, it's a straight count of everything in this row, so if a course you just published isn't reflected there, it likely isn't marked active yet.
- 4If a course is missing, showing 0 CEC, or filed under the wrong category, correct it at the source where your association manages its course listings; the catalog here will reflect the correction on the next load.
Association staff typically check this row before communicating a new course to members, and again near the end of a CEC cycle to confirm the catalog members are seeing matches what's been promoted.
Note
The Course Catalog and Members Behind on CEC sit on the same page but serve different purposes. The catalog shows what's available to everyone in the association. Members Behind on CEC shows individual roster members and their credit progress, because compliance tracking is a legitimate HQ-level view into roster standing. Neither row exposes a member's underlying business data, jobs, margins, vendor spend, or anything else operational. That stays with the member. HQ sees education participation and course-catalog aggregates only.
