This article is a quick look at what you can see and do when you're creating with iQualify. We've tried to keep this as a one-page overview, so we've included links out to more information throughout if you need it.

Note: There are iQualify settings that can be set at an organisational level, this can mean some organisations may not use all the features covered in this article and you might not see exactly everything we've listed here.

To get a feel for iQualify, it's a good idea to understand first what it's like for learners and facilitators. Check out Learning with iQualify and Facilitating with iQualify to see an overview of what their experience is like.

What you'll see as an author is different because where learners and facilitators are added to a class activation of a course, you edit the actual content.

A course is essentially a collection of pages with content. A page can contain all sorts of things!

You can add an of this content by using the + on any page in editing mode.

We think one of the best ways to learn to build in iQualify is just to try everything out. Make a "sandpit" course and just try things out. If you're after a few more pointers check out these Formatting tips for new authors.

Once you've had a bit of practice, you might be interested in using one of our templates or making your own. Read What should go in a template or our range of iQualify templates to see if they might be able to save you time.

Above we described what can go within a page of a course. But we need a bit more structure than a whole heap of pages. So, as an author, you can group your pages into sections and subsections to help learners navigate through the content and make connections between topics.

You can change the order of your content quickly and easily by dragging and dropping.

As well as pages of content, courses also have other associated values or data.

We find people want to use iQualify in all different stages, some do every step in iQualify from plan through to publish. Others prefer to plan with post-its, draft in a word or google doc, then build the final in iQualify. There is no right way to do it.

But if you're looking for some guidance, we've put together some ideas on a series of planning stages/tools and we've got advice about writing, using grammarly as a spell check and adding "reviewers" for that final sign off before you publish.

When you finish building a course you can publish it. When you publish, it becomes available to a manager to create an activation from it (setting dates, adding learners and facilitators etc.). If you need to make changes you can pop in to the course content, edit, and republish. Watch the video below to see an explanation of this process.

When logged into iQualify you can access tours and our knowledge base from the Help menu. You can also talk to our helpful support team via in-app chat or via a contact us form.
