Build courses your way – with drag-and-drop or AI.

- Coursly AI authoring generates complete courses that you can export to Smart Arena.
- Drag-and-drop editor gives you full control without coding.
- Interactive content includes quizzes, surveys, flip cards, video, and rich media.
- Templates and imports turn existing PPT and PDF material into reusable training.
Add real assessments — without a second tool.

- Configurable rules for pass score, time limit, and retakes.
- Connected results linking every score to the learner, course, and certificate.

Build feedback into the course — not beside it.

- Flexible launch options for standalone, in-course, or post-session surveys.
- Reusable templates you can customize without changing the original.
- Completion gating to require feedback before a course is complete.
- Connected reporting with leadership overviews, survey-level results, individual responses, and CSV/PDF export.

Create certificates from a template library or design your own with your logo, colours, layout, and expiry rules. Set it once on the course, and every learner receives it automatically on completion.
- Template library for ready-made certificate designs.
- Custom branding with your organisation's logo, colours, and layout.
- Validity rules to manage expiry and renewal.

Course Builder or Coursly AI — same platform, same output.
Generate a first draft with AI, or build every block by hand. Either way you finish, publish, and track in the same place.
Coursly AI
Generate the first draft – structure, copy, images, and a quiz – from a prompt, a file, or existing material.
Course Builder
Edit, structure, add assessments, approve, publish, and maintain the course by hand – full control over every block.
Together
Generate with AI, then finish in the Builder – or build entirely yourself. This page is about the Builder.
The Builder is one part of the platform – not a separate tool.
A course you build here moves straight into delivery, compliance evidence, and reporting – no exports, no second system, no re-uploading.
Coursly AI
Drafts the course from a prompt or file, then hands it to the Builder to edit, approve, and finish.
Explore Coursly AI →Learn
Publish a finished course to Learn to assign, schedule, and track completion across e-learning, ILT, and blended paths.
Explore Learn →Compliance
The Builder sets certificates and basic validity; Compliance adds e-signatures, audit trails, and renewal evidence.
Explore compliance →Insights
Every quiz score, completion, and survey response rolls up into live dashboards and exports.
Explore insights →Questions, answered.
Do I need design or technical skills to build a course?
No. If you can drag a block and type, you can build a course. The editor handles layout, interactivity, and formatting – so anyone on the team can create training, not just instructional designers.
Can I use my existing PowerPoint and PDF material?
Yes. Import PowerPoint and PDF files straight into a course and build on top of them – no starting from scratch, no separate conversion tool.
Can I build quizzes and surveys without another tool?
Yes – both are built into the Course Builder. Quizzes support multiple question types, pass scores, time limits, and retakes; surveys offer seven question types, three launch modes, and three levels of reporting. Results tie back to the course and the learner automatically.
Can I use the courses in an LMS we already have?
Yes. Publish straight into Smart Arena to assign, automate, and track – or export SCORM 1.2 / 2004 and import into any LMS you already run. No rebuilding, no broken formatting.
What's the difference between the Course Builder and Coursly AI?
The Course Builder is where you author and refine a course by hand, with full control over every block. Coursly AI is the optional AI authoring tool that generates a first draft – structure, copy, images, and a quiz – from a file or a prompt. Both live in the same platform.
Can we control who publishes content?
Yes. Run courses through a content approval process with in-course editorial chat, so material is reviewed and signed off before it goes live.
