A course outline is a simple but incredibly useful way of planning your online course's lessons. It's similar to a do-to list of every video you'd like to create on the day of filming your course. It usually contains a list of specific lessons with notes about content details as well as learning objectives, so you won't forget a thing.

It is possible to create an outline and then refer to it on the day of recording so you won't forget any details. Additionally, you can download an easy template available to aid you to start in minutes.

How do you get inspired? Why did you make making the choice to take this choice? The course helps the new students learn more about you.
