A modular learning system is provided for publishing new and updated learning applications to users of the modular learning system. The learning application authors are validated by the modular learning system as credentialed learning application authors. The learning application authors are optionally granted access to use a content editing interface and revise information using a template provided by a template user. The resulting learning application may be translated and certified and requested for publication. After publication, update requests may be provided to the authoring user to remind the author to review and revise the learning application.
