# Courses

> Build structured training for your team, check understanding with quizzes, and track progress.

<Note>Learning & Coaching is in beta and available to selected organizations.</Note>

Courses let you build structured training that your team works through at their own pace, with quizzes to check what they've understood. They pair with [Coaching](/learning-coaching/coaching): Coaching shows where reps are strong or weak against your competencies, and courses train those same competencies.

***

## Create a course

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Courses">
    In the left navigation, go to **Learning & Coaching → Courses** and click **Create course**. Give the course a name and an optional description.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add your content">
    Switch to the **Course** tab to build it. A course is made of modules, and each module holds lessons. Click **Add lesson** or **Add new module** to grow the structure, then fill each lesson with blocks such as text, PDFs, links, videos, images, and documents. To check understanding, add a [Quiz](#quizzes) block just like any other block.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure settings">
    Review the [course settings](#course-settings) and [module settings](#module-settings).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish">
    [Publish](#publishing) the course when it's ready.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Course settings

<Info>During the beta, these settings are fixed to the values below. They'll become configurable once Learning & Coaching comes out of beta.</Info>

| Setting | What it controls | Value during beta |
| - | - | - |
| **Audience** | Who the course is for | Internal |
| **Enrollment** | How learners join the course | Open to self-enroll |
| **Course completion** | When a learner has completed the course | All required modules |
| **Course failure** | When a learner has failed the course | Manually marked by author |
| **Authors** | Who can edit the course | The people you add |

***

## Module settings

Open the **Modules** tab in the course overview to control how each module unlocks, how its lessons are shown, and when it counts as complete. Pick **Course defaults** or a single module on the left, and edit its rules on the right.

<Frame caption="Changing the course defaults, overriding one module, and resetting it">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/flowla/2joXSCRWYlyOrGKj/gifs/course-module-settings.gif?s=199305dff98880781dfb4091e66fb63b" alt="The Modules tab showing course defaults and a module whose rules are overridden, then reset to inherit from the course" width="1200" height="678" data-path="gifs/course-module-settings.gif" />
</Frame>

### Course defaults and overrides

**Course defaults** apply to every module that doesn't have its own value. Changing a default updates all of those modules at once.

To change just one module, select it and pick a different value. The module is then marked **Custom** instead of **Inherited from course**, and it keeps its own value even if you change the course defaults later. Click **Reset** to make the module follow the course defaults again.

### Rules

| Rule | Options |
| - | - |
| **Unlocks when** | **Always open**: available as soon as a learner starts the course.<br />**Previous module done**: available once the module before it is complete. |
| **Lessons are shown** | **All at once**: every lesson is listed and learners can jump around freely.<br />**In order**: learners work through the lessons in sequence. |
| **Required for the course** | On by default. Optional modules stay browsable, but they don't hold up course completion. |
| **Counts as complete when** | **All lessons and quizzes completed**: every lesson in the module is done and its quizzes are submitted. Completing a module is what unlocks the next one. |

***

## Quizzes

Add a **Quiz** block anywhere in a lesson. It's added as **Knowledge check**; click **Edit** on the block to open the quiz editor, add your questions, and click **Save**. Switch to **Preview** to take the quiz the way a learner would.

</Frame>

### Question types

| Type | What the learner does |
| - | - |
| **Single choice** | Picks the one correct answer |
| **Multiple choice** | Selects all answers that apply |
| **True / False** | Decides whether a statement is true |
| **Open text** | Writes a response |
| **Video response** | Records an answer |

### Grading

For each question, the **answer sheet** on the right sets how it's scored:

* **Single choice**, **Multiple choice**, and **True / False** questions are auto-graded against the answer key. Mark the correct option, then set the **points** awarded for a correct answer.
* **Open text** and **Video response** answers are graded manually during the beta.

<Tip>The editor flags any issues, such as a question with no correct option marked. Fix them before you save the quiz.</Tip>

## Publishing

A course you haven't published yet, or one with unpublished changes, shows **Publish · Draft**.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click Publish">
    Click **Publish** in the course editor.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a publish note">
    Optionally describe what's in this version, for example "First release."
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish the course">
    Click **Publish course**. Learners in the course's audience can start it right away.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Frame caption="Publishing a course with a publish note">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/flowla/2joXSCRWYlyOrGKj/gifs/course-publishing.gif?s=43145bf7b70bd475dc9d225dbe62a8ef" alt="The Publish course dialog with a publish note, followed by the course marked Published" width="1200" height="678" data-path="gifs/course-publishing.gif" />
</Frame>

Once a course is live, any edits you make are saved as a draft. Learners keep seeing the last published version until you publish again.

***

## Track progress and review attempts

Once learners start a published course, open its overview to follow along.

* **Learners** tab: everyone enrolled, with when they enrolled and completed, their average score, and their progress. Use **Certify** or **Fail** in the **Review** column to mark each attempt. Course failure is always marked manually by an author during the beta.
* **Quizzes** tab: every quiz in the course, with its number of questions, how many learners have submitted, the average score, and how many answers are waiting to be graded. Open a quiz to see its responses, filter by **All**, **Needs grading**, or **Graded**, and open a response to see a learner's answers.

## For learners

Learners find courses under **Learning & Coaching → Courses**. Published courses from across the team appear under **Library**; click **Enroll** to join one. Use the **Enrolled** and **Completed** filters to find courses you've already started or finished.

Inside a course, learners work through each lesson and click **Complete lesson** to move on. Attempt tracking records their progress, so authors can follow how far everyone has got.
