This can be done for the landing page of the academy, selected courses or lessons. ![Preview](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-08-08%20at%2015-09-09-png.png?width=688&height=196&name=Screenshot%202024-08-08%20at%2015-09-09-png.png)Preview mode does not require you to be signed into the academy as a participant. There, you have full view over the courses, even if they are marked as **non-public (private)**. The preview mode is signaled via a banner at the top of the page. By clicking on **Close preview,** the preview mode is closed and the academy is shown from a visitor's point of view. Is the preview mode open in another window of the same browser, preview mode is entered automatically when entering the academy URL.   Preview mode is always entered via the following field, which can appear in varying places of the admin area:![Preview button](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-08-08%20at%2015-16-02-png.png?width=688&height=246&name=Screenshot%202024-08-08%20at%2015-16-02-png.png)Caution: In preview mode, no learning progress is saved. For instance, the percentage of contents completed in a course is not shown or whether a quiz lesson has been completed successfully.     - [Courses](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Categories](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#categories) - [Create and manage courses](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#create-and-manage-courses) - [Lessons](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#lessons) - [Course Catalog](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#course-catalog) - [Certificates](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#certificates) - [Live trainings and sessions](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#live-trainings-and-sessions) - [Participants](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Filters and Tags](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#filters-and-tags) - [Mailings](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#mailings) - [Help for your participants](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#help-for-your-participants) - [Export participant data](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#export-participant-data) - [Managing participants](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#managing-participants) - [Learning Progress & Analytics](https://support.reteach.com/en/learning-progress-analytics?hsLang=en) - [E-Commerce](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Sell courses](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#sell-courses) - [Stripe](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#stripe) - [Orders](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#orders) - [Account & Admin](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Tariff](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#tariff) - [Administrators](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#administrators) - [Legal & Data Protection](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#legal-data-protection) - [Settings](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Personalisation of your academy](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#personalisation-of-your-academy) - [Zoom & MS Teams Integrations](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#zoom-ms-teams-integrations) - [Useful information](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#useful-information) - [Automatisations](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#automatisations) - [Translation Tips](https://support.reteach.com/en/translation-tips?hsLang=en) [![reteach Die Lernplattform für den Mittelstand](https://support.reteach.com/hubfs/logo.svg "reteach Die Lernplattform für den Mittelstand")](https://www.reteach.com/) Haben Sie noch Fragen?
