View supported editions.
## Names, Titles, and Descriptions For all the items in your program, write concise, action-oriented titles that present clear goals for employees who take the program. Use the available description fields to clarify expectations and requirements. Avoid lengthy, repetitive text and think about how you can motivate and inform employees while they work. - The Program Name and all title fields allow up to 80 characters, but we recommend 35 characters or fewer to simplify the experience for employees. Consider action-oriented titles. - All description fields allow up to 350 characters, but we recommend that you use only one or two sentences. Summarize how the exercise supports the overall section. ## Experience Cloud Site Select Employee Portal to show the program to employees. ## Allowing Users to Self-Enroll Employees can take programs in two ways. - You can assign employees to programs directly. - Employees can self-enroll in programs that you make available. To allow employees to self-enroll, turn on **Users Can Self-Enroll**. After you save and publish the program, you can share it with specific employees, groups, or roles. Both assigned and self-enrolled programs are included in the prebuilt reports and dashboard. See [Sharing Enablement Programs with Employees for Self-Enrollment](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_sharing_enablement_programs_with_employees_for_self_enrollment.htm&language=en_US). To assign employees to programs directly, no action is needed in Program Builder. After you save and publish the program, you can assign specific employees. ## Day On each exercise, use the Day field to specify the day of the program when that item is due. ## Exercise Types In Program Builder, the type of exercise that you select determines the supported resource format, the content you add, and the icon that employees see when they take the program. See [Exercise Types in Employee Enablement Program](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_employee_enablement_programs_exercise_types_reference.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "The Program Builder palette includes several types of exercises that determine the content you provide and how employees experience the content when they take the program."). ## Exercise Length When adding content for exercises, remember that employees prefer short bursts of easily consumable content. We recommend that you include only content that employees can complete in 15 minutes or less. To minimize disruptions and clicking for employees, avoid linking to content that just links to other content. ## Exercise Content Make sure the content that you add to exercises recommends only products that are available to your employees. ## Sections in Programs With sections, group exercises into logical, manageable, and trackable chunks of related content. When employees take programs, they can expand or collapse sections. The prebuilt reports and dashboard include progress data by section so you can see how users are doing, section by section. #### See Also - [Managing Digital Experiences Content for Exercises in Employee Enablement Programs](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_employee_enablement_program_content.htm&language=en_US) - [Assigning Employees to Employee Enablement Programs Manually](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_assigning_employees_to_employee_enablement_programs_manually.htm&language=en_US) - [Sharing Enablement Programs with Employees for Self-Enrollment](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_sharing_enablement_programs_with_employees_for_self_enrollment.htm&language=en_US) - [Maintaining Employee Enablement Programs](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.es_maintaining_employee_enablement_programs.htm&language=en_US)
