Welcome to CourseFriendly
CourseFriendly turns what you know into a course people can buy. You build the course, students sign up, you get paid. No production studio. No coding. Just your knowledge and a few clear lessons.
What you get
- Your own course site. Branded with your logo and colors. Works from any phone or laptop.
- Lessons with video, text, and downloads. Mix and match — short videos, written walkthroughs, PDFs, links.
- Quizzes and assessments. Check that students are actually learning, not just clicking through.
- Built-in payments. Students pay by card. Money lands in your bank account on a regular schedule.
- Free and paid courses. Sell premium courses or give a sample lesson away to build your list.
- Certificates. Hand out a completion certificate students can save or share.
- Progress reports. See who finished, who got stuck, and where they dropped off.
Who this guide is for
Two groups of people.
If you are a creator — a coach, trainer, owner, or teacher — you will find articles on building your first course, pricing, coupons, certificates, refunds, and payouts.
If you are a student — someone who bought a course or got a free invite — you will find articles on enrolling, picking up where you left off, downloading your certificate, and fixing the most common video and quiz problems.
How to use this guide
If you are brand new on the creator side, read Create Your First Course next. Then come back for the rest as questions come up.
If you are a student, start with Enroll in a Course and Resume Where You Left Off.
A note on language
We say creator for the person who built the course. We say student for the person taking it. A lesson is a single chunk of content — a video, a written page, a quiz, or a download. A module is a group of lessons. A course is the whole bundle students buy.
