# Navigating Your Course

> Understand the course layout on Lena — tabs, course outline, class schedule, and viewing your classmates and teachers.

Once you've joined a course, you'll find all its content organized in a clean,
tabbed layout. This guide walks you through every section of the course screen.

<Note>
  **Before you begin:** You need to be enrolled in at least one course. See
  [Joining a Course](/students/joining-a-course) if you haven't joined one
  yet.

## Course home

When you open a course, you land on the **course home** screen. This gives you
an overview with quick access to all sections.
