### Overview

In the Course Fields tab, admin users can customize the sections that admin/LMS admins will be prompted to fill in when creating a course. The sections created here will become the [**Course Fields**](https://guides.mangoapps.com/lms-guide/learn-admin/creating-course-experience#overview) step during the course creation process.

### Sections & Fields

The system supports the ability to organize the course and curriculum details into sections. Each section can include pre-shipped fields and custom fields designed to showcase your company's training information.

Out-of-the-box, MangoApps features four sections with fields:

* **Overview:** This section includes fields such as course name, description, featured video, and featured image.
* **Details:** This includes fields like course code, category, credit hours, instructor, language, and more.
* **Certification:** This includes fields related to certificates, certificate validity, and more.
* **Resources:** This includes a field called "training material," allowing the attachment of files.

Drag & drop a section or course field to change the order in which they appear. Hover over a section or course field and click on the edit icon to change its properties. Field properties can be configured, allowing for:

* Marking them as required or optional
* Setting up the maximum character limit
* Making them available as a search filter in the course catalog for all users.
