It provides a structured environment for creating module-based courses that are easily accessible to learners ### **Setting Up Courses in Startup Space** Courses in Startup Space are closely integrated with the Cohort Management feature. To create your first course, you'll need to first set up a program and cohort using the Cohort Management guide. All courses are organized by cohort, so only the designated cohort participants can access the course content. #### **Steps to Set Up a New Course:** 1. Sign in to your Startup Space account. 2. From the left-side menu, go to "Courses" and click "Courses List" to open the Courses dashboard. 3. On the dashboard, click "Add Course". Enter a name for the course, select the associated program and cohort, then click "Submit". This creates the framework for your new course. To start adding content: 1. Click "View" on the course in the dashboard. 2. On the course page, click the "Add New" button in the bottom right to create a new module. 3. For each module, provide the following information: - **Title of Topic/Subject**: The title of the subject covered in this module. - **Description of Work**: A description of the content covered in this module. - **Date Range of Module**: The date range when this module's content will be available. - **Module Number**: The module number (1-20). - **Content**: Articles or other content for members to review. Make sure to mark content as "For Cohort Only" as needed. - **Assessments**: Any quizzes, surveys, or other assessments for members. - **Events**: Any events related to this module. - **Current Status**: You can lock or unlock the module to control access. 4. Click "Save" to create the module. Repeat this process to add more modules to your course. **Course Management Features:** - **Edit**: Update the course name at any time. - **View**: Access the course details and add/edit modules. - **Activate/Deactivate**: Toggle the course's active status. - **Duplicate**: Create a copy of the course for a new program and cohort. You can also export a spreadsheet of all your courses, including the program, cohort, status, and number of modules for each. - [FAQs](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Getting started](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/getting-started?hsLang=en) - [Troubleshooting](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Login and Registration](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#login-and-registration) - [General](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/general?hsLang=en) - [Account](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/account?hsLang=en) - [Features](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Business Advising](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#business-advising) - [Campaigns](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#campaigns) - [Cohort Management](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#cohort-management) - [Connect Now](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#connect-now) - [Courses](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#courses) - [Coworking](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#coworking) - [Jobs](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#jobs) - [Events](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/features?hsLang=en#events) - [CalOSBA SCALE Resources](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Data Reporting](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#data-reporting) - [Invoicing](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#invoicing) - [Forms](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#forms) - [Startup Space Quick Guide](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#startup-space-quick-guide) - [Lead Management Tool](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#lead-management-tool) - [Awardee - Lead Management Dashboard](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#awardee-lead-management-dashboard) - [TAP Application](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/calosba-scale-resources?hsLang=en#tap-application) [![EIC and Startup Space logos](https://learn.economicimpactcatalyst.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20and%20Event%20Images%20(1200%20x%20600%20px)%20(5).png?width=1875&height=625&name=Blog%20and%20Event%20Images%20(1200%20x%20600%20px)%20(5).png "EIC and Startup Space logos")](https://www.economicimpactcatalyst.com/) 28050 US Hwy 19 N Suite 305, Clearwater, FL 33761 [mailto:helpdesk@eicatalyst.com](mailto:helpdesk@eicatalyst.com) Copyright © 2024, economicimpactcatalyst.com
