Module-by-Module Breakdown

Module 1

Audience & Outcome Planning

Good production starts with understanding who the content is for and what it should achieve. This module teaches you to extract the essential "who, what, and why" from a client brief so that every structural choice you make later serves the end reader.

You will be able to:

  • Define the target learner and their starting point
  • Write clear, honest learning outcomes from approved source material
  • Align course or e-book structure to what the expert can genuinely deliver
  • Create an audience profile brief to guide all subsequent production decisions

Module 2

Outline & Source Management

An outline is not just a list of headings — it is the architecture of the whole project. You will learn how to turn unstructured notes, interviews, and reference materials into a coherent, reviewable outline that gives both you and the client a shared map of the project.

You will be able to:

  • Organise raw source material into a logical content hierarchy
  • Build a working outline the expert can review and approve
  • Maintain a source reference log for accurate attribution
  • Identify content gaps and flag them for client input

Module 3

Drafting & Instructional Structure

This is where the content comes to life. You will practice AI-assisted drafting — using approved source material as the foundation, never inventing facts — and learn how to structure each lesson or chapter for clarity and learning impact.

You will be able to:

  • Use AI drafting tools effectively within approved source boundaries
  • Structure lessons or chapters with clear introductions, explanations, and summaries
  • Write in the client's voice using provided style samples
  • Produce a complete draft section ready for expert review

Module 4

Editing, Worksheets & Formatting

Production quality shows in the details. This module covers line editing for instructional clarity, the design of practice materials, and the formatting rules that make a course or e-book feel polished and readable on any device or in print.

You will be able to:

  • Apply a structured editing pass for clarity, consistency, and tone
  • Design and format practice worksheets and reflection exercises
  • Format the document to accessible, professional standards
  • Prepare a print-ready or screen-ready final layout

Module 5

Rights, Expert Sign-Off & Handoff

A production job is not finished until the expert has reviewed and approved it. This final module teaches you how to prepare review materials, manage feedback rounds, handle rights and attribution, and deliver a complete, publish-ready package with confidence.

You will be able to:

  • Prepare a complete expert review packet with annotation guidance
  • Check attribution and rights for all third-party references
  • Manage revision rounds efficiently and record changes
  • Deliver a final production package the client can publish directly
