Intro to Courses

The courses feature in a membership site is a templated structure for creating and releasing course content. The simple module/lesson structure makes it easy for you to create your course and publish your content into a format that is user-friendly. 

For example, say you have a course or a membership program where you release new content on a weekly basis. You could set up each week's content as a lesson, and then format your course to be lessons only. Then your participants can click on the week they want to view. You can also load the content in advance and have it published on its own by using the schedule option for publishing. 

Or maybe you have an evergreen course where you want to release content at different times based on when the participants signs-up. You would be able to do this simply with both the mark as a complete feature and with the auto-publish feature. 

Each course is broken down into modules and the modules are broken into lessons which are where your course content will live. Lessons generally have a primary video followed by some written copy. You can then add additional videos, audio files, PDFs, basically any file that exists in your media library. 

You can also link worksheets from your content tab to a lesson. Here is our step by step guide on worksheets

In addition, when you are all done setting it up, courses allows you to create and add quizzes to help students evaluate the information they have retained. Here is our step by step guide for creating quizzes in your course

Note About Publish Status / Access Control

  • Draft make the page not viewable by anyone until you change the status to published, scheduled or auto-published

  • Scheduled allows you to choose a specific date when that course/module/lesson will appear as published to everyone who has access to a site.

  • Dripped allows you to control who can view that page via a trigger, automation, or broadcast

  • Published makes the page viewable by anyone who has access to the membership site, or you can control it further by selecting specific products from the list.
