📚 Create and Customize a Project

Creating a project is the first step to designing a training course on Didask. This guide takes you from creation through to publication.

⏱️ The Essentials in 3 Minutes

• A well-structured project supports progression and retention: learners know where they are and what comes next.
• You choose between two creation modes: AI generation or manual construction.
• The training is organized into modules, granules, and chapters, with options to enrich the course (placement tests, final exam…).
• Design statuses let you manage production as a team.
• Once ready, the project is published directly from the Publish tab.


🧠 Understanding the Pedagogical Value of a Project

A well-structured training course is more than a sequence of content. It creates a thread that learners can follow at their own pace, with clear signposts at each stage.

On Didask, the modular architecture allows you to:

  • manage cognitive load by breaking knowledge into short, targeted granules;

  • adapt the course to each learner's level through placement tests;

  • validate learning at the end of training with a final exam.

📌 Example: for a sales onboarding training course, you can create one chapter per stage of the sales cycle, with each module covering a key skill. Learners progress logically and retain more thanks to the spaced repetition built into the granules.


1. Create a New Project

Go to the Projects section from your platform, then click New project.

You then choose the creation mode:

  • AI generation: your training course is generated with the help of our pedagogical AI. Learn more →

  • Free creation: you build your content manually, with the option to use AI later.


2. Structure Your Training Course

Start by entering the project title, then organize your content by adding:

To understand Didask's architecture levels, see the dedicated article.

Enriching the structure

You can also add:


3. Track Progress with Design Statuses

Design statuses give you an at-a-glance view of each content item's state: in design, to validate, validated, to publish, published. They make it easier to manage and coordinate between authors.


4. Configure and Customize the Project

From the side panel at the top of the project, two icons give access to settings:

🎨 Graphic settings

  • Graphic theme

  • Customization options

  • Visual style used by the AI

  • Recurring characters

  • Module page customization

⚙️ General settings

Languages Translate your project or change its main language. For more information, see the dedicated article. 🔗

Certification

Exports Export your project according to your needs:

  • .xlif: ideal for translation processes and tools. Learn more 🔗

  • .docx: convenient for easily having content reviewed by an external party. Learn more. 🔗

5. Publish Your Training Course

When your training course is ready, go to the Publish tab and follow the steps in the Create a publication → article.

Anticipating the learner experience

Learners access the course according to the structure you have defined. A well-divided training course allows them to:

  • visualize their progress (completed chapters and modules);

  • easily pick up where they left off after an interruption;

  • receive a certificate at the end, if you have enabled it.

💡 The clearer each module's objectives are, the better learners understand what they are learning and why. Write module titles that are competency-oriented, not just topic-based.
