Courses

Run a course or training: a page to share, enrolment paid to you, lessons and live classes, progress for each student, and certificates anyone can check.

Open CoursesAbout running a course

Build the course

  1. 1Give the course a title. It starts with one module; add more for each week or part.
  2. 2In each module, add lessons. A lesson can have written content, a video (a YouTube, Vimeo, Loom or Google Drive link, or a video in your ToolkitDeck Drive), a live session with your meeting link, and handouts from Drive or links.
  3. 3Move modules and lessons with the arrows. Give a module an opening date to release its lessons on that day.
  4. 4Tick Free preview on a lesson or two so visitors can try them from the course page.

Open it and share

  1. 1In Page and settings, write what the course is about and what students will be able to do, add a cover picture, the trainer and the start date.
  2. 2For a paid course, set the fee and how students pay you. They pay you directly; ToolkitDeck never takes or holds the money.
  3. 3Press Open for enrolment, then copy or share the link. Download the QR code for flyers and slides.
  4. 4Press Flyer for a ready-made picture with the title, price, start date, what students will learn and a QR code: a story for WhatsApp Status and Instagram, or a square post. Add one more line such as Only 30 seats.

Quizzes and assignments

  1. 1In a lesson, under Check their learning, choose A quiz. Write each question and its answers, and tick the right one (or several, for a question with more than one right answer).
  2. 2Set the pass mark and how many tries students get. Quizzes are marked for you; passing finishes the lesson. Students see the right answers and your explanations once they pass or run out of tries.
  3. 3Choose An assignment for work students hand in: writing, or a link to a Google Doc, Drive, Canva or anything online. It comes to To review, where you approve it or send it back with a note. Either way they get an email.
  4. 4In Students, open a student's progress to see quiz scores, live classes joined and their assignments. Fresh tries clears their tries at a quiz so they can take it again.

Students

  1. 1Students join with their name and email. On a free open course they are in at once; on a paid course, or one you approve, they wait until you let them in from Students.
  2. 2Each student gets an email with a link straight into their classroom. Later they sign in at toolkitdeck.com/learn with a code sent to their email. Nobody needs a password.
  3. 3Add students yourself by pasting names and emails, one a line.
  4. 4Students show their progress in Students. Use Announcements to email everyone; it also shows in their classroom.

Live classes

  1. 1Tick This is a live session on a lesson, set the time and paste your Zoom, Google Meet, Teams or YouTube Live link.
  2. 2Students see the time in the course's time zone and a Join button. The link is only given to enrolled students, and pressing Join counts as attending.

Certificates

  1. 1With certificates on, a student gets one, by email, when they finish every lesson. You can also award one yourself.
  2. 2Each certificate has a number, a QR code and a public page that says it is valid, with a button to add it to LinkedIn.
  3. 3Revoke a certificate from Students if it was issued by mistake. Its page then says it was revoked, with your reason.
