How to preview and publish your course

After creating a course, the next step would be to publish it. Before sharing your course with students, preview it to ensure everything looks perfect! Here's how:

Preview your course

Log in to your account => go to Products => select your course => click Edit => navigate to the Publish tab => scroll down the page and click Preview Page. You can also click the Preview as Student and Live Page buttons at the top.

Clicking the buttons will redirect you to the course landing page as a student, allowing you to experience the course as a student would. Subsequently, you can proceed to publish your course.

Publish individual lessons

To publish a course that you have created, you first need to publish each lesson. First, log in to your account, navigate to the Courses section, and select the course you wish to edit. Once in the course, access the Lessons tab, scroll down to each of your lectures, and proceed to publish them all.

Finalize course publishing

After publishing each lesson, go to the Publish tab and ensure that all 8 requirements have been checked ✅. Then, click Publish Now.

Set your course URL

After clicking Publish, a pop-up window will appear. Here you will need to set your course path.

Note that you can use only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens (-) when creating your course path; no spaces or special characters are allowed. (e.g., the-power-of-generative-ai). The AI Assistant would also automatically generate a course path that you can use.

If you need to change your course path, you can unpublish the course and publish it again to set a new URL.

Congratulations, your course is now live!

Schedule Course Publish

You can also schedule your course to be published at a particular time. To do this, click Schedule => pick a time, date, and time zone => update your course URL, and click Schedule Launch.

Note that you can always reschedule or cancel the schedule before the course goes live.
