Overview
This article will guide you through the steps to create and set up a new course in AppicalNow. A course is a collection of stories that will help onboard new employees and provide them with valuable information. The course structure consists of Course → Story → Chapter → Page, where each story has chapters, and each chapter can have multiple pages.
Example: For example, if you're onboarding new employees, you might create a course titled "Introduction to the Company," with stories like "Our Mission," "Company Culture," and "Employee Benefits."
