Building Your First Online Course (Part 1)

Have you noticed an increase in providers utilizing on demand training? Have you been interested in building an on demand web-based training, but just not sure how to start? 

If you have been interested in learning more about the technical side of getting your first course online, this course will go beyond the basics you learned in Beyond Fundamentals: Introduction to Developing and Facilitating Online Training.

In this first part of Building Your First Online Course, you will be given an overview of multiple course platforms, including Canvas and WordPress.  We will take you through the process of planning, creating, launching, and maintaining your online course.
