3 Quick Steps to Get Started

On the Courses Planand up, you can create a Course inside a Space using one of our Course templates.

​
1. Create a Space Using a Course Template

When you create a new Space, select either a Cohort Course Template or Content Course Template. Cohort Course Template includes:
  • Course Community (Feed)
  • Course Materials (Course)
  • Discovery
  • Members
Content Course Template includes:
  • Course Materials (Course)
  • Members
**By default, a new Space is set to “Only Logged in Members” can see the Space.**This lets you create your Course privately and share it when you’re ready. When creating your Space, you’ll choose: After you select Create Space, you’ll see three options:
  • Charge for Access
  • Invite People to Join
  • View the Course
Select View this Space to start adding Course Materials and adjusting Course Settings.

​
2. Add Your Course Materials

A Course includes four content types:

​
Instant Course Outline(AI Feature)

Use the Instant Course Outline to generate a first draft of your Course structure. This gives you Sections and Lessons you can refine as you go. You can add several types of content to your Course, including images, videos, media, and file attachments. To learn more, check out this article.

​
3. Adjust Your Course Settings

You can update Course Settings at any time by going to the gear icon in the Space > Space Features > Course.

​
Section Naming

Customize the name of the Course, Sections, Lessons and Quizzes.

​
Display Style

On web and mobile, choose how your Course appears: Thumbnail View, Simple View, or Grid View. Uses each Lesson’s default image. You can upload a custom thumbnail in each Lesson’s settings. Displays Lessons and Sections in a simplified list. Videos show a play icon; Quizzes show a quiz icon. Shows a more visual, dynamic layout. This view works best when you have multiple Lessons organized into Sections.

​
Section Preferences

Choose where you would like all Sections expanded when a member first opens the Course or just a single Section. Expand All Sections: With this option, all Sections are expanded when a member opens the Course. As the member progresses through the Course, completed Sections will collapse. Expand Single Section: This option is helpful if your Course has many Sections and you don’t want to overwhelm members by showing all Lessons and Quizzes at once. Here’s how this option works:
  • When a member first opens the Course, if the first Lesson or Quiz is in a Section, only that Section will be expanded. If the first Lesson or Quiz is not within a Section, all Sections will be collapsed.
  • Sections will expand based on a member’s progress through the Course, with only one Section expanded at a time, unless the member chooses to expand other Sections as well.
  • If the member is in-progress on a Quiz or Lesson that is not inside of a Section, then all Sections are collapsed, unless the member chooses to expand other Sections as well.

​
Preview the Course

You can allow people outside the Course to preview Lessons or Sections, regardless of your Space’s privacy. To enable this, go to each Lesson Settings or Section Settings page.

​
Privacy

When your Course is ready, you can update privacy or add a paid plan.Your Mighty Network’s overall privacy also affects who can see a Space.

​
Invite and Manage Course Members

You can decide whether only Hosts and moderators can invite people to the Course, or whether all members can invite. By default, all members can invite. To manage Course members, go to Members. You can:
  • View all members
  • Welcome and message members
  • Download your Course member list
See our inviting article for more details.

​
Making Your Course Visible

By default, a new Course and its contents (Overview, Lessons, and Sections) are set to Hidden. This allows you to create content privately before making it visible to members.

​
Make Your Entire Course Visible

  1. Go to your Course.
  2. Click the small Select All box in the upper-left corner.
  3. Choose to make all—or any—Lessons or Sections Visible or Hidden.

​
Make Individual Lessons or Sections Visible

You can also make specific items visible anytime:
  • Go to Manage Overview Settings, Manage Lesson Settings, or Manage Section Settings.
When you make a Lesson, Section, or Overview visible, the following will appear to students:
  • The title
  • The first few lines of the body text
  • The thumbnail image
Students will always be able to open and view the Overview.The Space privacy level also determines who can see any visible content.

​
If You’re Starting From Scratch: Use a Live Course

If you don’t yet have Course content, you can run your first Course live. Turn on the Feed feature as your main Course page, invite a small group of students, and follow a simple weekly rhythm:
  1. Topic: Share it live (Zoom or Crowdcast).
  2. Case Study: Show the Topic in action.
  3. Challenge: Give members an action for the week.
  4. Result: Help members achieve one win each week.
You can run a Live Course with as few as 5–10 people. At the end of each week, add a Lesson or Section using video replays from your sessions.
