Create with Gadura
Create with Gadura is the Course Producer: a conversation about what you teach and who it is for, a Course Plan you approve, then the modules, lessons and a full first draft written into this builder for you to review and edit. Start it from Create in the menu; a course already in conversation shows the way back on its card.
Certificates
Turn on the completion certificate under Features. Students who complete the course receive a certificate with their name, the course, the completion date and a certificate number, and a verification link anyone can check.
SCORM
Export as SCORM produces a package in SCORM 1.2 or 2004 for use in another learning system, with completion reporting and progress tracking.
Selling
A course is sold through an offer under Sell → Offers & Checkout: one-time, subscription, payment plan or free. Buyers reach the course in the member portal. You can also enrol someone yourself from Audience → Contacts by opening the contact and choosing the course.
