![The LMS home page with a "Good Evening" greeting, Explore Catalog and My Courses buttons, and an Explore rail of course cards, one marked Enrolled](../images/catalog/home.webp)

## Overview

Home is the landing page of the LMS. It greets you, offers two quick ways into your learning, and shows a rail of course cards picked by your organization.

The greeting follows your computer's clock: "Good Morning" before noon, "Good Afternoon" until 6 p.m., and "Good Evening" after that. Beside it is a tagline your organization can customize; the default is "Pick up where you left off or learn something new."

Click **Home** at the top of the left rail to get here from anywhere. New learners may see the [Start screen](../getting-started/start-screen.md) first if their organization has turned it on.

## Target Audience

**Learner** | **Administrator**

## Features

#### Explore Catalog
Opens the [Discover page](discover.md) to browse everything in the catalog. Hidden when your organization has turned Discover off.

#### My Courses
Opens Discover filtered to the courses you are enrolled in.

#### Course rail
A grid of up to 16 cards. Your organization chooses what it shows:

| Setting | Heading | When it is empty | See More goes to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Catalog (default) | **Explore** | "No content found." | The full catalog |
| Enrolled | **My Courses** | "No enrolled content found." | Your enrolled content |
| Recommended | **Recommended for You** | "No recommended content found." | Your recommendations |

Visitors who are not signed in always see the catalog. The rail is hidden when Discover is turned off.

#### Content cards
Each card shows the cover image and title. A badge at the bottom left of the image names the content type (**COURSE**, **PROGRAM**, or **PATHWAY**), and pills at the top right show **Enrolled** or **Recommended** when they apply. Click a card to open its [course page](course-about.md), [program page](programs.md), or [pathway page](pathways.md).

#### See More
The **See More** link at the right of the rail heading opens the matching view on the Discover page.

#### Empty catalog
If the organization has no content yet, the rail is replaced by a message. Course creators see "No courses available yet." with a button to create the first course. Everyone else sees "No courses have been created yet." with a **Contact Support** button that emails the organization's support address.
