Can I customize welcome emails?

Yes! You have full control over welcome email content. Use variables like {{first_name}} and {{course_name}} to personalize each message. You can also include links, images, and formatted text.

How does drip content work?

Choose Calendar-Based to release content on specific dates (great for cohorts) or Individual Release to drip based on days since enrollment (perfect for evergreen courses). Students are notified when new content unlocks.

Can I schedule messages in advance?

Absolutely! Use the course calendar to schedule messages to all students. Great for reminders, encouragement, or supplementary content throughout the course.

What notifications do students receive?

Students receive welcome emails at enrollment, notifications when new modules unlock (for drip courses), and can opt into daily activity digests for discussions and comments.
