Creating Courses - how to create courses in your training area
If you're a member of your trust or service's training account on GovernorHub, you will able to create training courses from the Training tab of the account.
To create a new course, click on Create new course.
You can then give the course a name and an optional description. You can also categorise courses by typing the category name (e.g induction or safeguarding) into the Categories box. Existing categories will appear as a drop down or you can add a new one by typing the name and hitting Enter.
Online or Live training?
You can distinguish between a live or an online course.
Online courses in this regard are courses that can be taken at any time by clicking on the link provided.
Choosing to make a course an Online course will create an instant clickable link to the resources chosen, and will not create a bookable session.
Live courses will have sessions that take place on a specific date and time. You may provide an online link to access the session, but governors will need to book a place on the session, rather than clicking to begin the training at a time that suits them.
Once you've added all the details for a course, click Create. Your course is now ready to add any live sessions. Click the Create new session button to specify a date and time.
You can create multiple sessions throughout the year for a course, or a multi-part session over 2 dates if needed.
Once your session is created, it will be live for governors to book on, via the Training tab in your trust resources or service area. They will see the Book a place option available on the page.
Updating courses
If you need to update the course title, description or categories, click on the name of the course in the course list and click Edit course.
If a course is no longer running, you can archive the course so you can still see the historical sessions but you won't be able to add any more sessions for the course. To archive a course, click on the red Archive Course button.
Updating Sessions
If you need to update any of the details for a training session, click on the session ID listed under the course.
Click on Edit Session to update the session details.
To remove a session altogether, click on the red Cancel session button.
