# How to Manage a Course

## Unsure the best way to use the NHA study materials for your learners?

### **Step 1**

Log into your administrative account at [NHANOW.com](https://www.nhanow.com)

### Step 2

Under **Prep Materials** on the left-hand side and choose **Courses**

### Step 3

Locate the course and select **Course Details**

### **Step 4**

To view the study materials select the **Preview** feature to the right of any item 

- After selecting Preview, you will see content identical to your candidate(s)

### Step 5

You have options to manage candidate access to the materials:

- Clicking into “Always Available” will let you manipulate dates your learners see the materials
- You have the option to make the materials “Not available,” “Always available,” or “On a specific date.”
- Choosing the "On a specific date” button will allow you to choose the date the module unlocks on.

*\*Note: For best practices on timelines and rationales, please refer to the certification material Implementation Guide.*

 

### Step 6

**Assignments** will show candidates your expectations on time spent in a module or practice assessment completion 

- Assignments do not affect access to the materials
