Choose and switch workspaces

Each workspace keeps a different kind of work and permission boundary in view.

On the homepage, product guide and organisation pages, My workspace takes you
back to your account's default workspace.
When you are signed in on these shared pages, the avatar beside My workspace
opens your Profile, Manage workspaces, and Sign out actions. On smaller
screens, the same actions appear directly in the navigation menu.
Your session stays available when you browse the homepage, product guide, prices,
organisation pages, and Help Centre. After a brief connection interruption, return
to the tab or reconnect to let the app check your session again. Use the account
menu inside your workspace to sign out.
That compact action signs out only the browser or device you are using. To review
or close other sessions, open Profile > Security > Active sessions.

Access to your workspace

When public personal registration is enabled, eligible people aged 16 and over in
Ireland, Spain, the United States and Australia can register without a personal beta
invitation. Under the invitation-only staged policy, a current personal invitation is
also required, including for existing accounts. Confirm your email and complete the
private age and residence check before entering your workspace. Account suspension,
organisation membership and feature permissions still apply. Discentik is not yet
available in other countries. Purchases require separate commercial approval and the
applicable account, market, tax and provider checks.
The age-eligibility reminder lives in Profile > Account, rather than above every page.

• Learning is where you browse public courses and continue your own learning.

• Instructor is for personal course creation, preview, and review preparation.

• Organisation is for organisation courses, members, groups, assignments, and reporting.

• Discentik Admin is restricted to platform-wide review and operational work.

When your account has multiple available workspaces, use the workspace label in the
top navigation to open a chooser. The current workspace is marked in the list. On
desktop, you can also hover over the label with a mouse to open the menu. On mobile,
tap the workspace label inside the navigation menu.

Desktop navigation dropdowns, including the workspace, account, notifications, and language menus, open when you hover over their controls. Moving to another dropdown closes the previous one immediately. Move the pointer away from the control and menu to close them. You can also use click or keyboard activation; press Escape to close a menu.

If you have a personal learner account and have not enabled Instructor, the top
navigation shows Instructor instead of a redundant Learning label. Select it to
open Profile > Workspaces, where you can review and enable the personal Instructor
workspace. After activation, Learning and Instructor appear in the workspace chooser.
An account with only one available workspace and no eligible setup action does not show
a workspace control. Platform staff still see a non-interactive Discentik Admin
reference in the navigation so the administrative context remains clear.

Select Manage workspaces from your account menu to open Profile > Workspaces.
This section shows the workspaces available to your account and the actions for adding
access. If you open a workspace URL without the required role or capability, the
platform takes you to this section and shows a focused explanation of what is missing
and what you can do next.

Personal accounts cannot be converted to Organisation. To create or join an organisation,
use a separate account with a different email address. Your learning progress,
purchases, and Instructor courses stay in your personal account. See
How to set up a separate Organisation account.

Organisation-linked activity is separate from personal activity. Switching workspace
changes the tools and navigation you see; it does not move a personal purchase into a
Organisation library or turn an organisation course into a personal course.

The desktop Resume shortcut is available on Learning routes and opens the
eligible in-progress course you started most recently. You can have several courses
in progress; visiting an older one does not change this start-date ordering. Hover
over Resume or focus it with the keyboard to see the destination course in a tooltip.
Long titles wrap there without widening the button. Resume does not appear while you
are inside a course, in Instructor, Organisation, or Discentik Admin, or on shared pages
such as Profile, Help, Explore, and course details. Switching workspace preserves
your learning progress; return to Home or My Learning to continue.

If you expected Organisation access, ask an organisation Admin to review your membership.
Organisation-linked accounts do not use the personal Instructor workspace; course authors
work in Organisation after an Admin grants Content Author access.
