Then, go to File → Download → Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx) to save a copy of the template to your own computer.

Suggested Course Design

The subject matter expert will determine what format best suits their content, however, here are some established guidelines.

  • 6-week self-paced course requiring 2-4 hours each week.
  • Approximately ten sections with multiple modules containing Video lectures with slides, captions, and supporting documentation.
  • Exercises should be made available to both audit (unpaid) and verified learners and can be given after each section (prior to the exam, if applicable), or more frequently.
  • Self-graded multiple-choice exams are available only to verified (paid) learners pursuing a certificate and are generally given after each section.
