Core concepts
Module A coherent body of training (a SOP, a regulation, a playbook). Made up of lessons. Published by an instructor and assigned to learners. See Modules .
Lesson The smallest unit of content inside a module. One lesson covers one idea, one rule, one procedure. Generates one or more drills. See Lessons .
Drill A short question (under 60 seconds) that asks a learner to recall a specific point from a lesson. The unit of practice. See Loops .
Daily Loop (or Loop) The set of drills a learner gets on a given training day. Scheduled by the platform, not by the learner. See Loops .
Spaced repetition The practice of reviewing material at intervals timed to the moment just before recall would slip. The engine behind the Daily Loop schedule. See Spaced repetition .
States and measurements
Mastery A measure of how reliably a learner answers drills tied to a given lesson. Mastered lessons appear less often; struggling ones appear sooner.
Active A module a learner is currently enrolled in and getting drills from. A learner can be active in several modules at once.
Caught up Dashboard state when a learner has answered every drill their Daily Loop served that day, or when there are no drills due.
Streak Consecutive training days a learner answered at least one drill. Resets on a missed training day. Not affected by weekends or non-training days.
Training day A weekday on which the team receives drills. Set by an admin. Drills are not delivered on non-training days.
Roles
Learner (or student) The person doing the drills. Inside a team, learners are enrolled in modules by an admin or an instructor.
Instructor The person who builds modules, writes or edits lessons, reviews drafted drills, and approves what gets published.
Admin The person who manages team settings: who is on the team, who has which role, when training days happen, and what gets exported.
Modes
Practice mode Self-directed review of drills outside the scheduled Daily Loop. Does not advance mastery; the spaced-repetition schedule only moves through the Daily Loop.
Broadcast A one-time push of a module or a lesson to every member of a team or group. Used for urgent communications (a regulation just changed, a new SOP went live).
Content lifecycle
Draft A module or lesson an instructor has started but not yet published. Drafts are not visible to learners.
Published A module (or revision of one) that is live and being delivered to enrolled learners.
Retired A module that has been pulled from active rotation. Past mastery records are preserved, but new drills from it stop appearing.
Reporting
Activity log Operational visibility into security-related team events (logins, account changes). Useful for spotting unusual access. Not a compliance-grade audit artifact; see the trust page for what is and is not on that surface today.
Record export A pull of who drilled what, when, and at what mastery level. Used for internal reporting and training-evidence purposes.
