Creating a course in Course Studio starts with a document you already have. You upload it, Course Studio generates interactive learning from it, you choose which interactivity types to include, and then you review the result before sharing it. The whole process is designed to take minutes rather than weeks.

Generating learning from a document

To turn a document into interactive learning, follow these general steps. Exact labels and screens may vary in your workspace.

Upload a document

Add the policy, playbook, or product guide you want to teach from. Documents live in your Knowledge Center, so you can start from a file or FlexDoc you already have.

Generate learning

Point Course Studio at the document to generate interactive learning. You can use a learning command such as /quiz or /roleplay to create a specific format instantly.

Choose your interactivity types

Select which formats you want from the interactivity library — for example a Quiz, a Roleplay, or a set of Memorize flashcards. A single document can produce several formats at once.

Review the result

Read through the generated questions, scenarios, and prompts. Edit anything that needs adjusting so the learning matches your source material and tone.

The quality of the learning follows the quality of the source. A clear, well-structured document generally produces sharper questions and more realistic scenarios, so it's worth starting from your best version of a policy or playbook.

A few interactivity types

Different documents suit different formats. The examples below show how a few of the interactivity types work.

In Google Drive, share the folders you want to sync with your JoySuite service account, then paste each folder link when you add the connector. New files sync automatically.

Assign or explore

Once your course looks right, you can decide how people work through it. Learners can go self-directed and practice on their own time, or you can assign the learning to individuals or groups and track completion — each assignment appears as a task for the learner. For more on the two approaches, see About Course Studio.
