How to Create and Share a Course?
Course Ninja lets you build a complete online course and share it with learners through a registration link. It works alongside WebinarNinja, in the same account under the Courses tab.
Why Use It?
Course Ninja walks you through building and launching a course in one place, from first draft to shareable link.
- Building your first course — the tabbed flow moves you from details to content to settings to sharing, so nothing is missed.
- Already running webinars — Course Ninja shares an account with WebinarNinja, so courses and live sessions work side by side.
- Selling to learners — set a price, cap enrollments, drip content, and issue certificates without any extra tools.
Example Use Cases
- A corporate trainer builds an onboarding course with videos and a final quiz, then shares the link with new hires.
- A course creator sells a paid course, caps enrollment at 100, and issues a certificate on completion.
- A webinar host embeds a live session inside a course, so registrants get both the training and the recording.

Step 5: Choose a content type — Chapter, Session, Text, File, Video, or Quiz — then add its content on the right.
Note: Course Ninja saves your work automatically as you build - there is no Save button to click.
Step 6: Open the Course Settings tab to control how your course runs. It holds six areas — Registration Page, Thank You Page, Email Notifications, Drip Content, Completion & Certificate, and Access & Enrollment:
- Email Notifications — switch the automated emails learners receive on or off, and edit them.
- Drip Content — release chapters gradually instead of unlocking everything at once.
- Completion & Certificate — award a certificate when learners finish the course.
- Access & Enrollment — cap total enrollments and set whether access is lifetime or expires.
Step 7: Click Preview at any point to check how the course looks to learners.
Step 8: Open the Share tab, then click Copy to grab the course registration link - or share it straight to social media.
Step 9: Click Done to close the editor — your course is now ready to share.
