Course Platform Setup Checklist

What this checklist is for

A practical setup resource for course creators, educators, coaches and digital-product businesses preparing their chosen online course platform before students begin using it. Course platforms can contain many settings, pages and configuration options, making it easy for new course creators to overlook important setup steps. Where included, this checklist may help you organise initial platform setup, review important platform settings, prepare course branding, organise modules and lessons within your platform, review course access settings, consider enrolment or student settings, prepare essential course information, review the learner-facing experience, test the course before launch and complete final platform checks. This is a structured checklist resource — it does not provide course-hosting software, an LMS, hosting, automated platform setup or guaranteed error-free delivery. Third-party platform features and pricing may change, so check your provider's current information.

This is a standalone digital PDF checklist from the Courses & Learning collection.
