Create a Course on Union
Creating a course in Union allows you to offer structured experience for your students. Today, your courses can be created from a previous series (event), a playlist, or starting from scratch! Begin by visiting, Products > Courses > New Course. From here, you can choose a starting point to create your course!
If you choose to start from a previous event, you'll be presented with past events to import from. While you may want to include various series, you can add them again once the initial creation process has been created.
If you have a playlist that you'd like to turn into a more guided format, you'll be presented with all of your current playlists.
Starting from scratch allows you to start fresh! When picking this path, you'll start the creation of your course by adding the general course details (i.e. name, description, thumbnail photo, pricing). As a reminder, you can always come back to edit!

Editing a Section Name and Availability
Editing a Replay
When you edit a replay in a course, you can edit the title, description, add fresh downloads, and even decide if the replay can be available for the public before purchasing.
When edits are made to the course replay, they will only apply to the course. Your replay will keep the original details. If you'd like to see the original media content, click to be re-directed.
Add More Content
You have the ability to add items like other media content that wasn't apart of the original series or include text and photos.
Removing content
If you'd like to remove any imported content, simply click the universal Trash icon.
Add More Sections
If you're looking to add more sections, use the options below to choose how you want to add.
Editing the Course Info & Pricing
As previously mentioned, you can edit the course name, description, photo and even add more teachers!
Pricing Flexibility
With courses, you have the ability to use passes and/or tickets! The flexibility of including passes could allow you to give access to attendees who have a top tier subscription while offering a flat price for those who only want to purchase the course. Simply choose the category to admit certain pass types and create a new ticket, specifically for your course!
If you'd like to add another ticket (i.e. discounted pricing option), click Add Ticket.
Finally, if you would like to include a revenue category, specifically for the tickets you've added, select this option at the bottom. If one has not been created, you can update this at any time. Once you're done, click to Save.
Viewing your Course
Whether your course is published or in a draft status, you have the ability to view it as an attendee by clicking, Preview.
To the left, your attendees will have a tracker to show the entire progress of the course. They'll se a check next to each piece of content that has been marked as Complete and Continue. If your replay includes closed captioning, this will always be available.
