Ensure your online courses meet best standards
Ensure your online courses meet best standards
It is not just about starting online courses; the important thing is to ensure you meet best criteria to make your online courses useful to every participant and successful in all ramifications.
For your web courses to come out victorious there will be a need for you to take the following steps:
-
Have a catchy title for each video course
A look at the title of every one of your online videos should help tell your customers and prospects what to expect from the video. Focus the title on the lessons that the participant will learn from the video, the solutions to expect or what watching the video will do for you. Even if the video is solely about your product, the title should be about the solution the product brings to your pressing problem. For instance, if your video is about training disobedient dogs, the title should read something like: “Turn your disobedient dog into an obedient pet.”
-
Have a course description
It is essential you have an evident explanation of your course with relevant information such as the duration of the course if it is in batches, the age group the course targets, etc. If the course is gender specific, you should do well to indicate it there. For instance, if you design an online video web course on, “How to get your ex back with practical examples” for men, it is important to mention that the information contained therein is helpful in enabling men to get their ex-wives and girlfriends back.
Stating all relevant information relating to the video will help eliminate cases of people subscribing to the course only to discover it is not useful to them and leaving you very damaging reviews and remarks. Your course description can be in a preview that lets anyone interested in the course see what to expect as well as the quality before deciding to subscribe.

Make sure you use formats that get to your target audience
If you design an excellent course and end up not passing the information intended to your audience, the aim of your online course will be ultimately defeated. If videos do not help deliver the information you plan to give considering the audience you are targeting, you could include other course formats such as texts, images, audios, and pictorial charts and the likes. The important thing is to pass information. If you are teaching a foreign language to an audience who cannot decipher what you are saying due to variations in intonations, your course won’t sell.
