Getting started
Create your account and organization
Last updated
Creating an account also creates your organization, the container that will hold your courses, your learners and your teammates. You do this once, and it takes about a minute.
Sign up
You will be asked for four things: your name, your email address, a name for your organization, and a password of at least eight characters. No payment details.
You can also sign up with Google or LinkedIn instead. Your name and email come across from there, so the only thing left to fill in is the organization name.
Verify your email address
After signing up with an email address, we send you a verification link. Your account stays inactive until you follow it.
The link expires after 24 hours
There is no way to request a new one yourself. If it expires, or never arrives, get in touch and we will reissue it.
Signing up with Google or LinkedIn skips this step: your email address is already confirmed by them.
Naming your organization
The organization name is what learners see: on your enrollment pages, and in the sender line if you later send from your own domain.
Use the name of your business, school or programme — not your own name. Keep it under 60 characters; something short reads better on an enrollment page.
You can change it later from your organization settings. You are its admin, so you can create courses, invite teammates and manage billing.
What you get on day one
New accounts start on the Professional plan, with a 14-day free trial and no payment method required.
Your trial does not start when you sign up
It starts when your first learner enrolls. Signing up gives you a window to write your course and get everything right — none of which spends a day of the trial.
That window is 90 days. Sign up and never enroll anyone, and the account simply pauses; nothing is charged.
Signing back in
Sign in with the email and password you registered with, or with the same Google or LinkedIn account you signed up through. If you forget your password, use the reset link on the sign-in page.
Once you are set up, it is worth turning on two-factor authentication, your organization holds your learners' email addresses, and it is worth protecting properly.
Next steps
The next article walks through creating your first course end to end, writing a lesson, adding a quiz, and setting the schedule.
One thing worth knowing before you start: your free trial begins the moment your first learner enrolls, and enrolling yourself counts. Build the course first, then enroll anyone, including you.
