Create and publish a course
From an empty draft to a course students can find in the marketplace.
A course lives inside a space, optionally in a folder. It can be on demand (recorded lessons, available any time) or live (lessons with a date, streamed and then recorded).
Before you start
You need a verified teacher profile: open Teaching in the sidebar and complete the identity verification with Stripe. Until then you can prepare drafts but not publish.
Create the draft
- In Teaching → Courses choose New course.
- Pick the space, the type (on demand or live) and a title. For a live course set the start and end dates of the first edition.
- The draft opens in the course builder.
Fill in the builder
Info
Title, description, language, categories (up to three) and the goals and skills students will get. The checklist on the right tells you what is still missing for publication.
Media
A 16:9 cover image and, if you have one, a trailer video. The cover is what students see in the marketplace and in their library.
Content
Chapters and lectures. The first chapter is the free introduction and cannot be removed. Live lectures need a date; on-demand lectures need a video.
Billing
Free, one-time price or subscription. Use the instalment preview to see what students will pay over time.
Publish
When the checklist is complete, choose Publish. The course appears in the marketplace within a few minutes. You can keep editing: changes are saved as a new version and go live when you publish again.
Ask ARIA to do it
You can also say to ARIA: "Create an on-demand course called Analysis for the final exam in the Maths folder". It prepares the action, shows you exactly what it will create and waits for your approval.
