Once Smart Courses is installed and the courses board is set up, you can start creating your own courses. 

When a course is created in a specific board, it is attached to it, and its accessibility will be conditioned by the permissions of that same board.

There are two ways to create a course: 

From the Course catalog

From the "Course catalog", select "New course" to create a course.

From the board

You can click on the new course button or start typing the course's title in a new line.
