Design statuses (Work In Progress, To Validate, Validated, Broadcasted) enable a structured workflow for your instructional teams during course creation.
What this means for you:
Optimized course organization: Design statuses help track each stage in the course development process, ensuring clearer, more structured project management.
Enhanced collaboration: Teams can quickly identify content ready for review, under revision, or still in development, improving coordination among instructional designers.
Precise progress tracking: Course development progress is tracked accurately, allowing focus on priority tasks.
💡 Understanding Design Statuses
In Progress: Use this status when a module is still being developed and needs further adjustments.
👉 You’re a course creator adding new modules or activities.
Pending Approval: Use this status when a module or activity requires review from other team members or stakeholders.
👉 You’re collaborating with other authors and waiting for their feedback.
Approved: Use this status when all modules and activities have been reviewed and approved by all team members, ready for publication.
👉 All course authors have approved the module, and it’s ready for learners. You can change the status at any time (the "Validated" status is not final or irreversible).
To be published / Published: this is a single status - the wording changes depending on whether the project’s publications have been distributed.
👉 The "To be published / Published" status determines whether the module is included in the content of the publications linked to the project.
🔎 How to Set a Status
In the Studio, simply select the design status for each module or activity.
