# How do I edit a course?

## There may be changes to settings or content for courses. Learn how to create an editing version of a course.

How to get there: Log in to GoContractor and navigate to 'settings' and 'courses'. 

#### Access course to Edit configurations: 

1. Click **Settings -\> Courses**
2. Search the course you would like to edit.
3. Under the *Action* column. Select **Edit.**
4. You will be prompted *"Users will be able to take the previous version of this course until you publish a new version. To stop users taking the course while you are editing, remove the course from qualifications." *Click "Okay"
5. You can change any aspect of the content or configuration
6. Once you make your changes click Save.
7. Click Back to the Course list view or **Settings -\> Courses**
8. From the Action drop-down click  "**Activate**".

#### Set Configurations descriptions:

- **Course Valid Period:** This indicates how long the course content is valid for before the worker will become unqualified for the worksite and have to take the course again.
- **Identity Capture:**  This allows admins to review completed courses to ensure the person who took the course is the same person coming to the job site.
- **Slide Delay:** This indicates what type of delays will be in place so workers can not simply skip to the end of the course without reviewing the content.
- **Text-To-Speech:** If you uploaded a PowerPoint this allows you to pull down all the text in the presentation and make it available for audio playback during each slide.
