## Setting up your first course

Courses are like the fruit on your tree. Self contained symptoms of hard work and growth of your tree here at Mavenseed. 😎

> *Courses contain Chapters, Chapters contain Lessons, Exercises, and Quizzes. A Chapter is required to add a Lesson, Exercise or Quiz to a course.*

Creating a course is a powerful feature of Mavenseed. You have a lot of flexibility on how you choose to set up your course; from the content it contains, if you're selling it as a single product, bundling it or including it within your subscription. 

To get started, head over to your site and click on **Content** and then **Courses** on the left hand menu, and then **New Course**

* **Title:** Enter in your descriptive title
* **Description:** If you're just getting started, it's okay to not get your final description at this point. Enter a quick blurb and click the **Create & Continue.**
