The Leader in Me curriculum has a fresh new look, with a more intuitive design and clearer progress tracking throughout. Enjoy redesigned course cards, updated grade-level tab visuals, a new Course Overview page, versioned resources, and preview mode. Site administrators, coaches, and FranklinCovey admins can also monitor curriculum progress at a glance with the new Curriculum Admin Dashboard.
| Heads up: First 8 Days content has moved. You’ll now find it under the K–5 and 6–8 Curriculum tabs. |
| Refreshed Design Across Curriculum Tabs |
Each curriculum tab has a new look and feel:
- • Overview tab: Now includes an Active Classes section, with Resources located at the bottom of the page.
- • Course cards: Redesigned across every tab for a cleaner, more consistent view—similar to what you may have seen in Professional Learning.
- • Resources: Now housed directly inside each course, helping prepare the platform for future updates.

Course Card Changes
Each course card displays the number of classes you've started, the total number of modules in the course, and your progress across each class. The lesson counter on the right shows how many lessons you've completed out of the total—regardless of the order they were completed in. The progress bar reflects that count as a percentage of overall completion.
Navigation Changes
First 8 Days is no longer a separate item in the top navigation. It's now integrated directly into the K–5 and 6–8 tabs:
- • Left side: First 8 Days courses
- • Right side: Weekly lesson plans
This layout applies to both the K–5 and 6–8 tabs.

| Course Overview Page NEW |
Opening a course now brings up a brand-new Course Overview page. After clicking a course tile, you'll see:
- • The module list on the left-hand side
- • A video or static image introducing the course
- • A course description
- • Course resources

This gives users a chance to get familiar with the course before diving in.
Clearer Preview vs. New Class Options
The Preview and New Class buttons are now easier to understand:
- • Preview: A clear message lets users know their progress won't be saved. A yellow banner appears at the top of the screen as a reminder while they review the content.
- • Lesson experience: Whether previewing or in an active class, the lesson slides work the same—the content itself hasn't changed.
- • Starting a class from preview: In preview mode, users can start a new class from the yellow banner at the top of the screen or from the final slide of a lesson. Select Create a New Class to create a class and save progress going forward.
- • Converting to a class from preview: Already have a class set up but find yourself in preview mode? Save your progress to your existing class at any time from the yellow banner at the top of the screen or from the last slide of a lesson.
| Tracking Classes in Progress |
Once classes are underway, the Overview tab reflects that progress:
- • Active classes (e.g., Level 1) show your current progress, and you can jump right back in where you left off.
- • Show/Hide icons let you manage what's displayed.
- • The same in-progress classes also appear on their respective leveled tabs.

| Curriculum Admin Dashboard NEW |

This dashboard shows:
- • Which users have started the curriculum (digital curriculum or First 8 Days courses).
- • Where each user currently stands in their progress.
Select a level to see which staff members have started that course and how far along they are.

| This visibility was previously a “black box”—now, site administrators at each school and district can clearly track who has started the curriculum and how far they've progressed. |
