๐Ÿ“ Key Takeaways

What is โ€œcourseโ€?

A course is a service provided by an instructor or coach. It can be private or group-based and focuses on teaching new skills or preparing students for certification. A course is typically an ongoing, multi-session program (a series of lessons) โ€” for example, an 8-week jazz dance course. After completing one level, students can progress by signing up for the next. For some courses, the instructor first evaluates the student's capabilities, then works with them to set goals and create a personalized learning plan.

What is sign up?

Sign ups allow instructors to enroll students in classes, such as music, dance, or swimming, etc. By signing up a student, the instructor will be able to track each student's progress and current skill level. This makes it easy for the instructor to adjust the speed of coaching accordingly.

FAQ

Q: Can I not key in the course?

A: Without a proper course sign up system, the instructors will have to track monthly billing manually. This is highly time-consuming and often leads to error and inaccuracies. It is recommended to have a computerised system in tracking the data.

Q: Who should manage the course sign up?

A: For small studios, instructors or owners usually manage courses and sign ups directly. Medium-sized studios usually hire an administrator to take care of course management and student registrations.

    The recommended course code

  2. There are two ways to design the 'course code'.

    2.1. Set the course code the same as the description. This is the easiest and simplest method. Use this convention if you are not running a studio that has many courses.

    2.2. To handle more complex courses offered by your studio, you might need a better coding system. Here's the recommended convention to follow:

     Main Category (3-4 letters)+ Sub Category (3 letters) + Numeric Digit
    
     - Main category - dancing (DAN), swimming (SWM), fitness (FIT) etc.
     - Sub-category - BLT, ELT, SOC etc.
         - DAN-BLT - ballet class
         - DAN-ELT - elite class
         - DAN-SOC - social dance class
         - SWM-BEG - beginner swimming class
         - SWM-PRO - professional swimming for competition
    
     - "Numeric digit" - to indicate number of classes per week
         - DAN-BLT-1 - once a week ballet class
         - DAN-ELT-3 - three elite classes a week
    
     Examples of course codes used for Design Studio:
     "DSG" is "design"
         - DSG-LG - logo design. No numeric digit.
         - DSG-SOM-1 - social media design, 1 posting a week.
         - DSG-SOM -3- social media design, 3 postings a week.
         - DSG-POS - poster design. No numeric digit.
    
     You may create your own 3-letter course code as it saves your admins the trouble of assigning one.
    
  3. Group - select the group this course belongs to, or create a new group using the โ€˜+โ€™ button.โ€
