Your learning environment comes with a default look and feel, but as an administrator, you are able to modify this look and feel without any involvement from Dual Code. This includes changing your logo, modifying the colour palette, customizing the navigational menu, changing the layout of the front page and adding a slideshow and/or boxes that can be used for promotional or informational purposes, and adding Web pages (a feature commonly found in a Content Management System).

Proceed with Caution
It's important to understand that while there is a lot of flexibility when it comes to the look and feel of your site, you may want to minimize change when it comes to the navigation of the site. Dual Code has done many usability studies across a number of healthcare organizations, including large and small hospitals, and has come up with a navigational and menu structure that best meets the needs of healthcare workers. We have also published user guides for administrators, supervisors, learners, and other roles in the system. By changing the navigation, and particularly by removing certain items from the top menu, your users may have a hard time following the user guides and/or training that we provide them. childrenThis includes:
- Removing elements from the top menu (or changing their order)
- Moving or hiding blocks
- Changing the default front page
Note that adding menu items or blocks is generally fine, as long as the labels are intuitive.
