Course About Video Guidelines#
The course About video should excite and entice potential learners to enroll, and reveal some of the personality that the course team brings to the course.
This video should answer these key questions.
Who is teaching the course?
What university or institution is the course affiliated with?
What topics and concepts are covered in your course?
Why should a learner enroll in your course?
This video should deliver your message as concisely as possible and have a run time of less than two minutes.
Before you upload a course About video, make sure that it follows the same video guidelines as your course content videos.
Note
If you upload both a course image and a course About video, the course image appears on learner dashboards with a play icon superimposed on it. If you upload only a course video, the first frame of the video file appears with the play icon.
The process for adding a course about video is different than the process for including videos as part of the content of your course. For more information about including video content, see Introduction to Video.
For information about how to add an About video to your course About page, see Add an About Video.
