Steps

Step 1: Log In to Your Wajooba Admin Dashboard ✨

First things first, use your credentials to log in to your Wajooba admin dashboard. You'll land right on the main dashboard, your control center for managing all your amazing classes, members, and more. You've got this!

Step 2: Navigate to the Courses Section 🚀

In the left-hand menu, you'll see a list of options. Go ahead and click on "Courses." This is where all your existing courses live—and where we'll bring your brand-new course to life!

Step 3: Start Building Your New Course!

Look at the top right of the screen for the "Create Course" button, then click it. This will open the course builder, which is your main workspace for adding all the important details that will make your course shine.

Step 4: Enter Basic Course Information

Narrator: Simply click the Generate AI button. Wajooba will automatically create a rich, structured, and engaging course description for you. You can review it, make edits, or regenerate it until you’re fully satisfied.

After that, choose the Author to help organize your course and improve discoverability by showcasing the course ownership!.

Step 5: Make Your Course Shine with a Visual! 🌟

Next up, it’s time to upload a captivating course image or banner. A strong, attractive visual helps your course stand out from the crowd and is super important for attracting more eager learners!

Step 6: Set Your Course's Pricing and Enrollment Options 💰

Now, let’s talk business! Navigate to the pricing section. Here, you'll decide whether your course is "Free," requires a "One-time Payment," or is "Subscription-based." You also have the option to enable manual enrollment if you prefer to approve each student yourself. You're doing great!

Step 7: Craft Your Engaging Curriculum 🧩

Here’s the fun part—building the actual content of your course! Click "Add Module" to create main sections, then click "Add Lesson" within each module. Lessons can include engaging videos, helpful PDFs, detailed text, interactive quizzes, valuable assignments, or downloadable files. Simply upload your content or paste text directly into the editor. Your learners will love it!

Step 8: Define Course Access and Availability 🗓️

You have full control over how and when your students access your amazing content! You can set up access rules like drip schedules (releasing content over time), prerequisites (what students need to complete first), and specific course availability dates. This ensures a smooth and structured learning journey for everyone.

Step 9: Launch Your Course to the World! 🎉

Once you’re absolutely thrilled with every detail of your course, click "Publish"! And just like that, your course is now live and ready for eager learners to enroll. If you want to preview the learner experience, simply click "View Course" to open it as a student. Congratulations, knowledge entrepreneur!

Tips & Best Practices

• Always aim for clear, concise descriptions that highlight the benefits for your learners. What incredible transformation will they experience?
• Choose a high-quality, professional image for your course banner. It's often the first thing prospective students see, so make it inviting!
• Break down your content into manageable modules and lessons. This makes learning feel less overwhelming and much more engaging for your students.
• Don't be afraid to experiment with different content types – videos, quizzes, and downloads can really enhance the learning experience and cater to different learning styles.
• Before publishing, take a moment to preview your course from a student's perspective. It's a fantastic way to catch any little tweaks that could make their journey even smoother!

Troubleshooting

Don't worry if you hit a little bump in the road; here are some friendly solutions to common issues: Can't log in? Double-check your username and password. If you've forgotten them, use the 'Forgot Password' link to reset it—we've all been there! Course image not uploading? Ensure your image file size and format (like JPG or PNG) are supported. Sometimes, a quick refresh of your browser can work wonders! Content not saving? Always make sure you're clicking the 'Save' or 'Update' button within each section before moving on. A stable internet connection also helps with larger uploads. Course not appearing after publishing? Sometimes it takes a moment for changes to fully propagate. Try clearing your browser cache or viewing it in an incognito window. If it still doesn't appear, double-check that you clicked the final 'Publish' button!

What's Next

Congratulations on successfully launching your course! You've done something amazing. Now it's time to tell the world about it! Share your course link on social media, email your audience, and consider running an early-bird special or a launch promotion to get those first enrollments flowing in. Keep creating, inspiring, and growing your incredible knowledge business!
