Navigating the Library

Topics>Courses>Modules>Resources

The majority of the content in the library can be broken down into the following structure.

        1. From your dashboard you can select from the 5 main topics of Medicare, Documentation & Coding, Practice Finances, Compliance, and Business Essentials.
        2. Within each of these topics lives a variety of courses. For example, the Medicare courses as pictured below
        3. Within those courses are unique set of modules
        4. Those modules contain resources, with a variety of different types.

Resource Types

There are different icons for resource types. Here is a sample of all the types:

Site pages will include mostly text. Downloads will have support tools or reference documents for download. Image pages will contain graphics. Video pages will contain rapid tutorials or Kathy’s mini classes. Self assessments are quizzes to track your progress. In some cases, a page may contain multiple aspects of these types of resources!

Rapid Solutions

Rapid Solutions are structured very similarly to the Courses however they have much less content and are more so meant to answer a quick question where as the courses may be more suited for a deeper dive into any given topic. These are a great tool for getting a basic understanding of a topic!

The Search Bars

Different Bars for Different Purposes


From your dashboard there are two different search bars. A green one at the very top right of the page and a blue one just a bit lower down. The top green bar will search all of KMC University while the lower green bar will only search the learning management system or LMS. This means searching in the green bar will include results like our product pages and free blogs while searching in the blue bar will not. Both of these search bars will include all of the results within the library.

Additionally, on the Rapid Solutions page and Courses page you have the option to search within just Rapid Solutions or just Courses, respectively. This can help narrow down your search if you know you are only interested in one of those two types of results from the beginning of your search.

Tips on Searching

    • Use specific key words related to what you are searching for
      • If you’re getting too many results refine your original search
    • Use quotation marks around your search terms to get results that contain the exact phrase
    • Keep in mind which of the search bars mentioned above may be the most useful for your specific search

If you are unsuccessful remember the HelpDesk is available to assist you!
