If you're creating a Multi-Language course, you may want to include a language selector toggle in case your learners need to re-select the language they've chosen:
The language toggle can added to a Menu in the header or footer of your Project. When it is selected, the learner will be taken back to the language selection screen where they can choose their preferred language.
Re-selecting a language will not affect a learner's position in the course; they can continue from the exact spot they were before.
| Tip: Consider adding instructions to your course explaining where to find the language selector and how to use it. |

There are two stages to this process:
1. Adding a Menu button to the header or footer
