How do I publish a course?

When you are ready for your users to view your course, you can publish a course. If you edit course content, you will need to re-publish changes.

Publishing your course immediately sends a course email invitation to any users added to your course. Learn how to find users or find groups to add to your course.

Notes:
• You cannot unpublish courses at this time.
• Some features may be restricted based on permissions for your user role.

Open Author Menu

In the Global Navigation menu, click the Author icon. Then, click the Courses menu option.

Note: The Global Navigation menu may differ depending on what is enabled in your account.

Open Course

In the Courses page, click the name of an unpublished course.

Publish Course

Click the Publish Course button.

Publish from Content Editor

When adding or editing content, you can publish your course from the content editor.

Select Course Change Notifications

Once you have published your course, any edits to course content will require you to re-publish your course for users to see changes.

Before publishing your course changes, you can choose which users will receive notifications [1], re-enroll all complete users [2], or publish silently [3].

Publish or Discard Changes

To publish changes, click the Publish Course button.

Confirm Changes

A toast message will appear at the top of the page, indicating the course has been published.
