After you've created your school, you will need to set up your first author who will act as the instructor for your courses. You can have multiple authors, but you will need at least one to get started.

To create an author, click the "Authors" tab from the main admin dashboard. You will now see a table with the option "Add New Author" in the upper right-hand corner. Click this to go the Author Profile page.

• PLEASE NOTE: There may already be an initial author listed in the table. You can just click the "Edit" button for that author and continue from there

Next you will be on the Author Profile page. Here you will add the following information:

• Author Name
• Author Headline - A quick blurb to summarize the author's background and skill set
• Author Image
  • IMPORTANT: The image will be resized to 250px X 250px, so it would be best if you could use an image that has a similar aspect ratio or even those exact dimensions
• Author Bio - This is the area where you will want to expand upon what you wrote in the headline. There isn't a minimum size that the bio has to be, but keep in mind that this is where potential students will judge you and your qualifications as the instructor.
• (Optional) Social Media links - You can add a Facebook, Twitter or Google+ page for the author, although this isn't a necessary step of the process.

Once you have filled everything out, simply click 'Save Changes' at the bottom of the page.
