Creating and adding courses to your community is a key aspect of delivering valuable content and fostering engagement among your members. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to create a course, set up a community, and seamlessly integrate your course into the community platform.
Creating a Course #
To begin, you need to create a course before adding it to your community. Start by navigating to the ‘Membership’ section on your dashboard and selecting ‘Products’ from the Courses dropdown.
Here, you can design your course by choosing ‘Create Product.’ For detailed instructions, refer to the “How to Build a Course” article.
If you’ve already created a course, you can proceed to the next steps.
Setting Up a Community #
Before you can add courses, ensure you have an active community. Start by setting up a subdomain in your settings or utilizing the default domain provided.
Next, create a group by navigating to ‘Groups’ and entering the required details, including group name, URL, description, and branding. This step is crucial for building a space where members can engage, learn, and grow together.
Adding Courses to Your Community #
Once your course and community are set up, adding the course to your community is straightforward. Log into your group, navigate to the ‘Learning’ tab, and click on ‘Add Course.’
Choose your course from the dropdown and set the visibility to “All Members” to ensure it is accessible to all members, thereby offering them valuable learning resources.
Once all details are set, click on “Add Course” to finalize.
By following these steps, you can efficiently create a course, set up a community, and make educational content available to your members. This structured approach not only enriches your community but also enhances the learning experience, helping members to engage, learn, and grow.
