Programs are the top-level container for everything you deliver to athletes. They’re how you package your lessons, videos, and training content into structured courses that athletes access through the CoachIQ app. Think of programs as the “product” athletes actually see and work through.
Where to find Programs: Dashboard → Content → Programs

​
Why programs matter

While Media Hub stores your content and Lesson Builder creates interactive experiences, Programs are what athletes actually access. Key points:
  • Athletes only see Programs—they never access your Media Hub or raw lessons directly
  • Programs can be sold as paid products or shared free
  • Programs track progress—you see who’s completed what
  • Programs collect responses—quiz answers, form submissions, and uploads all live here
Think of it like this: Media Hub is your filing cabinet, Lessons are your worksheets, and Programs are the course binder you hand to students.

​
How to create a training program

1

Go to Programs

Navigate to Content → Programs and click the + Create Program button in the top right.
2

Set program details

Enter your program name and configure basic settings. This is what athletes will see in their app.
3

Add content from the sidebar

In the left sidebar under Coaching Materials, you’ll see:
  • Lesson: Your interactive lessons from Media Hub
  • Media: Standalone videos and images
Drag items from the sidebar into the visual flow area to add them to your program.
4

Arrange your content

Drag nodes up or down in the visual flow to reorder chapters. Athletes will progress through them in the order you set.
5

Configure progression

Click Complete & Progress in the top bar to choose how athletes move through content (more on this below).
6

Save your program

Click Update Program (yellow button, top right) to save all changes.
Critical: The Program Builder does NOT auto-save. Always click Update Program before navigating away or you’ll lose your changes.

Program title displays at the top, followed by:
  • Coaching Materials: Expandable sections for Lessons and Media
  • Drag items from here into the visual flow to add them

​
Center area - Visual flow builder

This is where you build your program structure:
  • Starting Block (purple): Visual entry point, always present
  • Lesson nodes (orange/red): Interactive lessons you’ve added
  • Media nodes (blue): Standalone videos or images
Click any node to select it and see options.

​
Right panel - Materials summary

Shows a list of all content in your program with:
  • Order number (1, 2, 3…)
  • Content type (Lesson or Media)
  • Access timing (Immediate, or unlock requirements)

​
Adding content to your program

​
Adding lessons

  1. Click Lesson in the left sidebar to expand it
  2. Find the lesson you want to add
  3. Drag it into the visual flow area
  4. Drop it where you want it in the sequence

​
Adding standalone media

  1. Click Media in the left sidebar to expand it
  2. Find the video or image you want
  3. Drag it into the visual flow area
  4. Drop it in position
Mixed content: Programs can contain any combination of lessons and standalone media. Use lessons for interactive content and standalone media for simple video chapters that don’t need quizzes or text overlays.

​
Reordering content

Drag nodes up or down in the visual flow to change their order. Athletes will progress through content in the order shown (top to bottom).

​
Removing content

  1. Click on any node in the visual flow
  2. Click Remove in the popup menu
  3. The content is removed from the program (but not deleted from Media Hub)

​
Working with program nodes

When you click on a node in the visual flow, you’ll see:
OptionWhat it does

Edit LessonOpens Lesson Builder directly (lessons only)

Quick editing: Click “Edit Lesson” on any lesson node to jump directly into the Lesson Builder. Save your lesson changes there, then return to the Program Builder.

​
Progression modes: How athletes move through content

Click Complete & Progress (or Change next to it) in the top bar to choose how athletes progress through your program.

​
Immediate Access

How it works: All content is available immediately. Athletes can access any chapter in any order. Best for:
  • Reference libraries
  • On-demand content collections
  • Programs where order doesn’t matter
  • Returning athletes who need to jump to specific sections

​
Complete & Progress

How it works: Athletes must complete each chapter before the next one unlocks. They work through content sequentially. Best for:
  • Structured courses with building concepts
  • Certification programs
  • Training progressions where order matters
  • Ensuring athletes don’t skip foundational content
“Complete” means the athlete has fully viewed/finished the lesson or media—not just opened it. They need to swipe through all slides or watch the video.

​
Drip

How it works: Content releases on a time-based schedule. You configure how frequently new chapters unlock (daily, weekly, or custom intervals). Best for:
  • Email-course style content delivery
  • Subscription programs with ongoing content
  • Pacing athletes to prevent rushing through material
  • Building anticipation and engagement over time

​
Previewing your program

Click the Preview button (play icon) in the top bar to see exactly what athletes will experience:
  • Program thumbnail and title
  • Chapter list with progress indicators
  • Lesson preview with slide count
  • “Begin Program” button
This is the same view athletes see in their app. Use it to verify your content looks correct before sharing.

​
Viewing program stats

Click the Stats button in the top bar to see:
  • All Checkpoints: Overview of all chapters
  • View counts: How many athletes viewed each chapter
  • Quiz responses: What athletes selected on multiple choice questions
  • Form responses: What athletes typed in free-text fields
  • Upload submissions: Files athletes submitted through Upload elements
Stats are collected at the program level, even if the same lesson appears in multiple programs. Each program tracks its own responses separately.

​
Tips for building effective programs

Start with an outline

Plan your chapter structure before building. Know what content goes where and in what order.

Mix content types

Combine interactive lessons with standalone videos for variety. Not everything needs to be a full lesson.

Use clear thumbnails

Each chapter thumbnail helps athletes navigate. Use distinct images that represent the content.

Save frequently

No auto-save means lost work if you forget. Click Update Program after every significant change.

Frequently asked questions about programs

Yes! Lessons can be reused across unlimited programs. This is great for foundational content that applies to multiple courses.
Lessons are interactive, multi-slide experiences with text, quizzes, forms, etc. Standalone media is just a single video or image—athletes watch/view it and move on. Use lessons when you want interaction, standalone media when you just need to share a video.
Yes, but be careful. Changing from Complete & Progress to Immediate Access will unlock all content for everyone. Changing the other direction may lock content athletes previously had access to.
Click the Stats button in the Program Builder. You’ll see view counts and can track which chapters athletes have completed.
No limit. Add as many lessons and media files as you need. However, very long programs may benefit from being split into multiple programs or “levels.”
Lessons must be saved in the Lesson Builder before they appear in the Program Builder. Make sure you clicked “Update Lesson” after creating it.
The lesson will be removed from any programs that included it. Always check where a lesson is used before deleting it from Media Hub.
