Once you submit your course, you will be able to share its link and subscribers will have access to it. However, it won't be visible on the app or on our website until our team has reviewed and approved it.
If your course gets rejected, it will be sent back to "draft". You will receive an email highlighting the issue. Please make the necessary changes and resubmit your course promptly to avoid current students not being able to access your course.
Here are some tips to promote your course:

REINFORCE YOUR EXPERTISE
Build a Portfolio
We recommend you have free tracks on the app, especially on your course's topic. It can be a great way to let users know you are an expert on the subject and hopefully, they would like to go deeper into it by listening to your course.
It is also good to recommend students listen to some of your practices as a way to integrate the teachings and skills from your course into their everyday lives.

Please make sure you have included in your teacher bio your expertise and relevant qualifications on the topics you have shared content on.
Users love to learn more about our teachers and this will help them make an informed decision on whether to take your course or not.
Please remember that your bio is written in the third person, and kept within 200-500 characters (or about 60-80 words). Do not use emojis, write in all caps, and include web links (there is a dedicated section for website links in the teacher profile)

2. Click on the “Publisher Profile” tab on the left menu
