Beta Feature: The AI Courseware Wizard is currently in Beta. We're continuing to improve the experience and introduce new capabilities to make Courseware creation faster and easier.
The AI Courseware Wizard transforms your ideas and source materials into structured course outlines, production-ready video scripts, and ready-to-customize Courses in LightSpeed VT.
From planning your training to building your Courseware, the Wizard helps you get from concept to launch faster, without starting from scratch.
Why It Matters
Creating effective training takes time, especially when you're organizing content, writing scripts, and manually setting up Courses.
The AI Courseware Wizard simplifies the process by helping you:
- Turn existing materials into organized training programs.
- Create individual Courses or complete multi-course Curricula.
- Generate production-ready video scripts aligned with your learning objectives.
- Automatically build Categories, Courses, Chapters, and supported content from your outline.
- Save time on Courseware setup so you can focus on delivering great training.

What You Can Create
Course Outlines and Learning Paths
Upload your source materials to create structured outlines that include Categories, Courses, Chapters, descriptions, learning objectives, and estimated durations.
Choose between a Single Course or Full Curriculum to match your training goals.
Production-Ready Video Scripts
Turn your outline into detailed video scripts using the AI Script Writer.
You can edit content, rewrite sections with AI, manage revisions, and export your finalized scripts for production.
Built Courses
Ready to turn your outline into actual Courseware?
The Build Courses feature automatically creates the Categories, Courses, Chapters, and supported content from your finalized outline directly within Courseware MGMT.
Instead of manually recreating your outline, you can jump straight into reviewing your Courses, adding final media, and preparing your training for Learners.
How to Use the AI Courseware Wizard
Step 1: Create Your Course Outline
Start by turning your existing content and training goals into a structured learning path.
- Open the AI Courseware Wizard and select Create Outline.
- Upload your source materials, such as documents, transcripts, PDFs, or presentations.
- Define your target audience, learning objectives, and training goals.
- Choose between a Single Course or Full Curriculum and select your preferred Content Mix.
- Customize the Style of Voice to match your brand and teaching approach.
- Generate your outline and review the results.
- Refine individual Chapters, Courses, or the entire outline until you're satisfied.
Once your outline is finalized, you're ready to create scripts, build your Courses, or both.
Step 2: Generate Video Scripts
Use the AI Script Writer to create production-ready scripts for your video Chapters.
- Open your completed outline.
- Select individual video Chapters for script generation, or queue multiple scripts.
- Generate your scripts.
- Review, edit, and refine the content.
- Export your finalized scripts for recording and production.
You can also open the Script Writer independently to create scripts from scratch.
Step 3: Build Courses from Your Outline
Here's where your planning comes to life!
The Build Courses feature transforms your finalized outline into actual Courseware within LightSpeed VT, eliminating the need to manually create each Category, Course, and Chapter.
- Review and finalize your Course Outline.
- Select Build Courses from the Wizard.
- Confirm that you're ready to create your Courseware.
- Open Courseware MGMT to review the newly created Categories, Courses, and Chapters.
- Add any required videos, documents, or additional content.
- Review your Course settings and publish when you're ready.
Your Courseware structure is created automatically, so you can focus on the finishing touches.
What Gets Created Automatically?
Build Courses uses your outline to create the following components in Courseware MGMT.
Categories
Each Category is created with its description and thumbnail.
Courses
Each Course includes its description, thumbnail, duration, and rank within its Category.
Chapters
The Wizard creates each Chapter according to the content type defined in your outline.
| Chapter Type | What Gets Created |
|---|---|
| Video | The Chapter is created and ready for you to add your finalized video. |
| Document | The Chapter is created and ready for you to upload downloadable files. |
| AI Roleplay | The Chapter is created and ready for you to add the SCORM package. |
| Page Content | AI Ghost Writer automatically generates the page content using the description from your outline. |
| Assessment | The Chapter is created, and any assessment questions included in your outline are automatically added. |
| User Submission | The Chapter is created with default settings. Enable Admin Approval if submissions require review before publishing. |
Before You Publish
Build Courses handles the setup, but a few finishing touches ensure your training is ready for Learners.
- Review your Categories, Courses, and Chapter organization.
- Add finalized videos, documents, and SCORM packages where required.
- Review AI-generated Page Content and assessment questions for accuracy.
- Confirm Chapter settings, including User Submission approval preferences.
- Preview your training, then publish it for your intended audience.
Build Courses creates your Courseware structure and supported content. It does not produce finished videos or supply media files.
Export and Produce
Need to share your work with a production team or Subject Matter Expert?
You can export your Course Outlines and video scripts for review, approval, and production.
When you're ready, use Build Courses to create the structure directly within LightSpeed VT, then add your finalized media and publish.
Best Practices
Start With Quality Source Material
Upload documents, transcripts, presentations, or other resources that clearly communicate the subject matter. Better input helps the Wizard produce more relevant outlines and scripts.
Define Your Audience and Goals
Be specific about who you're teaching and what Learners should achieve.
For example, instead of requesting general sales training, describe the skills new sales managers need to develop during their first 30 days.
Customize Your Style of Voice
Set up your System's AI Persona to maintain a consistent voice, tone, and teaching style across AI-generated content.
The AI Courseware Wizard automatically inherits your configured AI Persona settings. You can further customize the Style of Voice directly within the Wizard when generating new outlines and scripts to better suit specific training needs.
Review Before You Build
Take time to review your generated outline before selecting Build Courses. Confirm the structure, Chapter types, learning objectives, and assessment questions.
A well-organized outline leads to a smoother Courseware setup.
Add the Finishing Touches
After building, review AI-generated content, upload your final media, and verify your Chapter settings before publishing.
