The component is an industrial administration tool for managing the life cycle of courses.

The plugin is highly modular and lets you specify your own steps and conditions (triggers), to define workflows suited to your needs.

It is a fork of the original component by Tobias Reischmann, designed for PostgreSQL databases.
