Taking Notes Throughout Your Courses

A guide on how to take notes through your courses in the GLSS App

Written by Nicole Ines

Taking notes provides learners with an organized way to record important information, key takeaways, reminders, and study materials while progressing through our Training & Certification Courses. Taking notes throughout your training can help improve course retention, support exam preparation, and revisit concepts.


1. Accessing a Course Video’s Transcript

  • Select your desired Course

  • Select desired Module

  • Select Menu on the top right

  • Navigate to Notes

All lessons across all modules have transcripts automatically generated.


2. Best Practices

  • Organize personal written or typed notes by DMAIC module

  • Focus on key Lean Six Sigma concepts & methodologies

  • Add brief examples or context when helpful

  • Include short summaries after each module

Learners interested in note-taking must write and store them externally (e.g. an online writing platform or notebook), as direct note-taking is currently unavailable within the GLSS App.


3. FAQs

Q: Are transcripts available for all modules and courses?

A: Yes. Every video within each module has its own dedicated transcript. Transcripts are specific to each video, so they do not carry over between lessons or modules.

A: No. In-app note-taking is not currently available within the GLSS app. However, learners are encouraged to take personal notes (stored externally) while progressing through course content.

A: No. The transcript from a course video or application content cannot be edited. Learners can read these notes to review key points or use them as a text alternative to listening to the audio.
