Are these groups to be manually refreshed? Automatically refreshed on a certain cadence? (A question for the delivery team to figure out if there is a reasonable cadence for a chron to refresh groups).
How do we roll this functionality out while also considering the existing learner grouping mechanisms on the platform (see Considering learner groups alongside existing grouping mechanisms section of this page for more)
Learner Group Functionality

Cohorts and Course Groups: A cohort is a learner group made up of a list of learners, and a course group is a learner group made up of learners based on their enrollment track. This would necessitate making it so that Learner Groups can be linked to a content group.
We’d want to be thoughtful about this functionality though (since dynamic groups would likely not serve as the best cohort and currently, learners can belong to more than one learner group).
However, the benefit of being able to link a learner group to a content group would be that you could potentially provide additional content to a learner who did not perform well on a particular assignment and even re-test that learner on that concept later on in the course. (This is an idea that came up a few times when talking to course delivery teams about learner grouping).
Teams are a little more complicated since they can be learner defined, they are organized around projects and forums, and involve team-sets. Folding teams within the Learner grouping Grouping umbrella would require some additional thought.
