There are two ways to allow a student to skip content in EdgeEX courses: customizing content out of a course or bypassing the content. The difference between these the functions is based on your intent: do you want to remove content from a student’s course permanently or simply let students skip over it temporarily (with the expectation that they will complete it later)?
Customizing content out removes the content permanently from the course.
Bypassing content does not remove the content; it simply lets students temporarily skip over it without penalty.

Additional things to consider
- If you don’t want students to be able to access content now, but you do want them to do the content at a later time, you can choose to customize content out and then customize it back in at a later time.
- When you customize content out of an EdgeEX course, the student will reach 100% progress if they complete all the remaining content. However, if you bypass content, the student will not reach 100% progress if they do not complete the bypassed content.
