Top 5 Myths of Course Creation
- It’s hard work- to be honest people over complicate course creation. You literally take your passion and expertise and pair it with what people want to learn. For example if you’re really good at savings hacks and you’re a couponing fanatic you’re taking what you already do and monetizing it.
- You have to be a teacher. You don’t have to have any formal experience with teaching . I think the word “course” contributes to this myth. Look at course creation as a chance to piece together things you already work on. The best part is you can choose how to deliver the material (whether written, video, audio, slides etc.)
- I am not licensed or an expert. The definition of expert is someone who has gained their expertise from experience! So take some time to consider what experience you have that could contribute to your expertise. And here is what I say all the time - your job is to simply be one step ahead of your audience and when you are you are able to educate and teach
