(FOR CONTENT PROVIDERS) How to publish your content
This article details the publishing process for courses and other multimodal content created in Editor. To Learn about publishing passive content (video, audio, and PDFs), see How to upload passive content like videos, podcasts, ebooks, audiobooks, etc.
You’ve previewed, edited, and finalized your course. Now it’s time to get your content in front of learners!
How do I submit my content to be published?
Open your course and click "Submit for Review" in the upper right corner. That's it. We take it from there.
What if I see content errors when I try to submit?
Nothing to worry about! The Content Errors panel at the top of the page lists anything that needs a quick fix first. Course-level items can be fixed right on the course page. Lesson-level items come with a Page Builder link that takes you straight to the spot that needs fixing. Once the error list is empty, you're free to submit.
How do I know my content is ready to submit?
Before you submit, take a few minutes to read the Edovo Content Guidelines. They spell out what we can and can't publish for learners in correctional facilities: you have the rights to publish the content, it has clear learning value, contains nothing that could pose a security risk, and will adhere to facility policies.
When you submit, you'll check a box confirming your content meets these guidelines. Please treat that as a real check rather than a formality. Content that meets the guidelines the first time moves through review quickly.
What happens when I click Submit for Review?
A confirmation window shows the path your content will take:
- Edovo reviews and screens your content in the order it was received.
- We send you any update requests, if needed.
- You make the updates and submit again, if needed.
- We publish your content.
Editing is locked once your content is under review, so make sure it's final before you click Submit for Review.
How do I know it went through?
Your content status changes from Draft to Under Review, and a tracker at the top of the page shows where you are in the process. You'll also get a confirmation email for every item you submit.
Who do I contact if I have a question?
Just reply to your confirmation email. No need to find a separate contact or start a new thread. We use that same thread to reach you, too. We recommend saving the email until your content is published just in case.
What if my content needs changes?
Your status changes to Action Needed and we'll reply to your confirmation email with what to adjust. Editing unlocks so you can make the changes. When you're ready, click Submit for Review again and we'll screen it again.
How do I know when it's published?
The content status changes to Published and we'll reply to your confirmation email to let you know. Your content is now live for learners!
The confirmation email will also include a link to your Data Analytics Dashboard where you can track learner engagement and impact.
How long will this process take?
Depending on the complexity of your content and what changes are needed, the screening and publishing process can take up to 30 business days
To help expedite the process, we recommend you thoroughly self-screen your content prior to submitting. Review our guidelines and then use the preview feature to “take” the content like a learner would. Read through all text, watch the videos, listen to audio passages, and take the quizzes. By making sure your content is 100% ready to improve the lives of incarcerated learners, you can help prevent the “Action Needed” phase that might slow things down.
