# Create Cohort Specific Content with Content Groups

Create content groups and associate cohorts with different content groups.

## Create Content Groups&#x20;

We use content groups to designate specific course content as available to particular cohorts of learners. Content groups are created in Studio, follow the steps below to get started.&#x20;

In **Studio** select **Settings** > **Group Configurations**&#x20;

On the **Group Configurations** page select '**+ Add your first content group**'&#x20;

Enter a meaningful name for the content group, then select '**Create'**. The page will refresh to show the name of your new content group.

Repeat this step to create as many content groups as you want.

## Specify Content as Available Only to Appropriate Content Groups&#x20;

After you create a content group, you can work with your course outline to specify which **components** and/or **units** are available to specific content groups.

You cannot specify entire subsections or sections for restricted access by particular content groups.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Note: If a unit has content group access restrictions set, all of the components in the unit inherit the restrictions - *unless* you explicitly set different content group access restrictions for individual components.
{% endhint %}

## Assign a Unit to a Content Group&#x20;

To associate a particular Unit with a content group open the **Course Outline** in **Studio**.&#x20;

Select the wheel icon to '**Configure**' the desired unit.&#x20;
