What is the difference between mGuides and modules?
mGuides are compact learning experiences that serve as "how-to" guides for the learner to understand a specific skill set. Each mGuide takes about 1 hour to complete and there is no assessment. Completing three mGuides earns a Level 1 badge.
Modules are more in-depth learning courses that go over larger topical areas (like Pre-Award, Post-Award Finance, Research Compliance, etc.) and are completed by taking a 50-question assessment. Each module takes about 2 to 5 hours to complete. Completing one module earns a Level 1 badge.
