## Sharing content with Accounts
Upon the creation of an Account, no courses will be initially accessible, requiring the content to be **shared** with it first. This process informs Content Controller about the specific content that the designated Account(s) should have access to.
There are two methods for sharing: either from the Content page, allowing simultaneous sharing with multiple Accounts, or alternatively, from the Account itself, enabling exclusive sharing with that specific account.
