The course name can be up to 100 characters long. ### Course ID An identifier for the course. The Course ID must be unique within the account. ### Status Indicates whether the course is active or inactive: - Active - Active courses are available to learners. - Inactive - Inactive courses are not visible or accessible to learners. - Refer to [Editing a Course's Status](/v1/docs/inactivating-a-course) for more information. - Courses associated with a [SKU](/v1/docs/variant-main#sku-required-if-ecommerce-setting-is-enabled) may not be made inactive. - Courses [associated with a requirement](/v1/docs/editing-a-blocks-courses) may not be made inactive or archived. To change the status of a course associated with a requirement to *Inactive* or *Archived*, you will need to first [remove the course from the requirement](/v1/docs/editing-a-blocks-courses#removing-a-course-from-a-block). ### Default Price This setting is only available when the [account's Enable PayPal setting](/v1/docs/account-integrated-ecommerce#enable-paypal) is checked. The currency symbol displayed will depend on the [account's Currency setting](/v1/docs/account-integrated-ecommerce#currency). ![](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/Course%20Info%20-%20Main%20-%20Default%20Price%2020210818.png) Enter the default price for the course. You can change the price at the [group level](/v1/docs/group-courses#override-default-price). ### Course Length The estimated number of minutes to complete the course. ### SCORM Package Before uploading the SCORM package, be sure to remove special characters and spaces from its file name. Refer to [SmarterU File Uploads](https://support.smarteru.com/docs/smarteru-file-uploads-1#courses-scorm-course) for file specifications. Click **Upload SCORM/PPT** to upload a .ZIP file of your SCORM package. We recommend not making any other changes on the workscreen until the file has completed uploading. The [Window Size & Properties button](/v1/docs/scorm-package-properties) will not be enabled until after you upload your SCORM package and click **Save**. The amount of time it takes to complete the conversion can vary. If the course remains in conversion for an extended period of time, please contact our [Success Desk](mailto:success@neovation.com) and provide them with your account name and course name. If you upload a .PPT file, you will receive an [email when SmarterU has converted the presentation to a SCORM course](/v1/docs/system-email-templates-course-emails-online-and-scorm#scorm-conversion-notification-success). - If you upload a PowerPoint file to a new course, the course status will be set to *Archived* until the file conversion is complete. This is done to prevent the course from being edited and prevent users from being enrolled. If you upload a PowerPoint file to an existing course, the status is unchanged and the previous SCORM package will be used for any enrollments until the conversion is complete. - Refer to [Editing a SCORM Course](/v1/docs/editing-a-scorm-course) for information on what learners will see when the .ZIP file is updated. ### Description (required) A description of your course. You can use the [WYSIWYG editor](/v1/docs/wysiwyg-editor) to format the description. Not all options listed on the [WYSIWYG Editor](/v1/docs/wysiwyg-editor) page are available in the Course Information workscreen. ### Enable Discussions This setting is only available when the [account's **Enable Discussions** setting](/v1/docs/account-settings#enable-discussions) is checked. Check to enable [discussions](/v1/docs/learner-interface-about-course-discussions) for the course. ### Flag Course as New/Updated Check to display the new course icon (![](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/New%20Course%2020210813.png)) on the [learner interface's course pages](/v1/docs/courses-1). ### New/Updated Course Status Expires On This setting is only available when the [**Flag Course as New/Update** setting](/v1/docs/scorm-course-main#flag-course-as-newupdated) is checked. The last date that the new course icon (![](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/New%20Course%2020210813.png)) displays on the [learner interface's course pages](/v1/docs/courses-1). The default is 30 days from the current date. ## Related - [Account: Integrated eCommerce](/account-integrated-ecommerce.md) - [Account: Settings](/account-settings.md) - [Adding a SCORM Course](/adding-a-scorm-course.md) - [Converting PowerPoint](/converting-powerpoint.md) - [Editing a SCORM Course](/editing-a-scorm-course.md) - [Group: Courses](/group-courses.md) - [Learner Interface: About Course Discussions](/learner-interface-about-course-discussions.md) - [SCORM Package Properties](/scorm-package-properties.md) - [SmarterU File Uploads](/smarteru-file-uploads-1.md)
