# Create and Update Trainings

> Create a training, write its chapters and lessons, preview it, get it published and keep its learners informed. Step by step, with screenshots.

A **training** is a course sold in the catalog: a presentation, a price, and chapters full of
lessons (documents or videos). As an instructor you write it from start to finish; an admin
publishes it when it is ready.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Everything below is for the **web app** on a computer, signed in as an **Instructor**.

## Step 1 — Open your trainings

Click **Trainings** in the sidebar.

![The Trainings table with titles, learners, price, status and actions](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/01-trainings.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=13ab32f86c719bb8aae3914c33110470)

Your trainings.

Each row shows the training, its number of **Learners**, its **Price**, its **Status**
(**Published** in the catalog, or **Draft**) and the month it was last **Updated**. The icons at the
end of a row are shortcuts: the eye (**Preview**), the pen (**Update**) and the bell (**Notify
learners**). The sparkles are green when an admin has enabled the **AI Assistant** for the training.

**⋯** opens every action:

![The row menu with Preview, Update, Notify learners, Learners' emails, Import Chapters and Import Lessons](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/02-training-menu.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=c7baf7df2488a1a61e24ceb7f85ca3ed)

The ⋯ menu of a training.

| Action | What it does |
| :- | :- |
| **Preview** | Opens the training as learners see it (Step 5). |
| **Update** | Opens the training editor (Steps 2 to 4). |
| **Notify learners** | Sends an in-app message to everyone who follows the training (Step 6). |
| **Learners' emails** | Lists the e-mail addresses of the training's learners. |
| **Import Chapters (.json)** | Adds chapters from JSON files, for example a training exported by an admin. |
| **Import Lessons (bulk)** | Turns images into lessons, one image per lesson, in file-name order (`01-…`, `02-…`). |

***

## Step 2 — Create a training: Basic Info

Click **Create Training** at the top right. The editor has two steps: **1 Basic Info** and
**2 Course Content**.

![The Basic Info step with the Identity, Media, Pricing & revenue and Level & duration sections, the checklist and the catalog preview](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/03-create-training.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=3900c7f25efbcc41f807700591866c5c)

Create Training → Basic Info.

The **Checklist** on the right ticks each part as you fill it, and the **Catalog Preview** shows
the card learners will see, with your name on it.

**1. Identity**

**Training Title** and **Training Description** (shown in full on the training page, first two
lines in the catalog). The **Training Slug** is filled **Auto from title**. Pick at least one
item in **Training Categories** and **Training Tags**.

**2. Media**

**Intro Video**: paste a **YouTube link** (a preview appears) or switch to **Upload video**.
**Thumbnail**: the 16:9 cover used in the catalog. **Badge logo** (optional): shown on the
learners' certificate.

**3. Pricing**

**Price** in TND, and an optional **Discounted Price** (lower than the price). Your share of
each sale is set by an admin, not here.

**4. Level & duration**

**Total duration** in hours and minutes, and the **Difficulty Level**: **Beginner**,
**Intermediate** or **Expert**.

**5. Save & continue**

Click **Save & continue**. The training is saved **as a draft**, invisible to learners, and the
**Course Content** step opens.

> [!NOTE]
>
> If the platform says *"Default Revenue Percentage Unset"*, your revenue percentage has not been
> set yet. Contact an admin: they set it in **Users → Set Revenue**, then you can save.

## Step 3 — Build the course content

![The Course Content step with two chapters in the curriculum and the New chapter form](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/04-course-content.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=3c46a5b296cb5ac4bf722349a1976ec4)

Course Content: the curriculum on the left, a new chapter on the right.

**1. Add a chapter**

Click **Add Chapter**, type the **Chapter title** (learners see it in the course tree), then
**Save chapter**.

**2. Add lessons**

Open the chapter's **⋯** menu and choose **Add Lesson**. The same menu has **Rename chapter**
and **Delete chapter**.

**3. Reorder**

Drag a chapter or a lesson by its handle (the six dots on the left).

**4. Save the training**

When the curriculum is ready, click **Save training** at the top right.

**Find a chapter or lesson…** searches the curriculum, **Expand all** opens every chapter, and
**Import** adds chapters from a file.

***

## Step 4 — Write a lesson

![The new lesson form with the lesson title, the Document and Video types and the Content block](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/05-add-lesson.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=89bb1fa4d0b59c4f579a74ab59584e9e)

A new lesson.

**1. Title and type**

Type the **Lesson title** and choose **Document** (text, images, tables and files written in the
editor) or **Video** (a YouTube video, with notes underneath).

**2. For a video: the source**

Paste a **YouTube link**, or switch to **Embed code**. Uploaded MP4 files are not supported for
lessons yet: use YouTube (an unlisted video works).

**3. Write the content**

Click **Edit content** to open the full editor, write the lesson, then **Save Lesson** at the
top of the editor.

**4. Save**

Back in the form, click **Save Lesson**.

![The lesson form of a video lesson with the YouTube link field and the Content added block](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/06-edit-lesson.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=8116a6e65f98e038892e02fb7597600f)

Editing a video lesson.

In the curriculum, a **green** dot means the lesson has content, an **orange** one that it is still
empty. The lesson's **⋯** menu offers **Preview**, **Edit** and **Delete**.

> [!TIP]
>
> The first lesson of chapter 1 carries a **FREE PREVIEW** badge: visitors can watch it before
> buying. Make it a good introduction to the training.

***

## Step 5 — Preview it and get it published

The eye on the row (or **⋯ → Preview**) opens the training page as learners see it: category,
level, presentation video, price, and what **This training includes**.

![The training details page with its banner, certificate badge, presentation video and price box](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/08-training-preview.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=2d89e4e850b66e660819d164c2d9722c)

Previewing a training.

When everything is ready, ask an admin to **publish** the training. Its status then turns
**Published** and it appears in the catalog.

***

## Step 6 — Notify your learners

Click the bell on the row (or **⋯ → Notify learners**). The bell is grey while the training has no
learners.

![The Notify learners window with the recipients, the notification types, the title, the content and quick messages](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/instructor-guide/trainings/07-notify-learners.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=089d6edf226ea19a9fdd8de48b7c1513)

Notify learners.

**1. Check the recipients**

**Recipients** shows the training and how many learners will get the message.

**2. Pick a Notification Type**

**Announcement**, **Reminder**, **Deadline**, **Assignment**, **Course Update** or **Warning**.

**3. Write the message**

Fill in **Notification Title** and **Notification Content**, or start from a **Quick message**
(**Important reminder**, **New chapters added**, **Training update**, and so on).

**4. Send**

Click **Send now**. The message is in-app only and goes out immediately.

## Good to know

> [accordion] Can I change a training after it is published?
>
> Yes, with **Update**. Learners see the changes as soon as you save. Once the training has sold,
> some business settings are locked; an admin can tell you more.

> [accordion] How do I give my training to a learner for free?
>
> You can't from the instructor side. Ask an admin: they can assign it, or send a voucher.

> [accordion] Where do quizzes come in?
>
> A quiz belongs to a chapter of a training. Create it from **Quizzes** — see
> [Create exams and quizzes](https://docs-strived.mintlify.site/instructor-guide/create-exams-and-quizzes.md).
