## Overview

Levels are the columns of a Roadmap grid, each one describing a stage of progression. If a Level is no longer relevant, you can remove it. Deleting a Level removes the whole column, including everything you'd added in the cells beneath it. This article shows you how, and what to expect when you do.

## How to delete a Level

1. Go to **Roadmaps** and open the Roadmap you want to edit.

2. Hover over the Level (column) you want to remove. A row of icons appears above its title.

3. Click the **trash** icon (**Delete level**).

4. A confirmation appears asking **Are you sure you want to delete this level?**. Click **Confirm remove** to delete it, or **No thanks** to cancel.

## Things to keep in mind

* Deleting a Level also deletes every cell in that column — the descriptions, key skills, technical skills, behaviours and linked learnings you had added for that Level against each Competency. This cannot be undone.
* The Competencies (rows) and every other Level are untouched.
* The action icons only appear when you hover over a Level, so nothing is deleted by accident.
* If the Roadmap was published, deleting a Level moves it back to **Unpublished**. Re-publish when you're ready.

## FAQs

**Can I undo deleting a Level?**
No. Once you confirm, the Level and all of its cell content are permanently removed. If you're unsure, consider duplicating the Roadmap first as a backup.

**What happens to the other Levels?**
Nothing. Only the Level you delete and its cells are removed; the remaining columns keep their content and order.

**Should I be careful deleting a Level from a live Roadmap?**
Yes. Deleting a Level permanently removes that column's cell content, and a published Roadmap reverts to Unpublished until you publish it again, so learners will see the change once you re-publish. It's best to make structural changes like this before a Roadmap is widely in use.

## Who can do this

**Owners**, **Admins**, **Managers** and **Content Managers** can delete Levels from a Roadmap. **People Managers**, **Instructors**, **Employees** and **Restricted** users have read-only access to Roadmaps and cannot.
