The Multi Instructor addon allows more than one instructor to take a course. Multi-Instructor is a free feature of Academy LMS. To use this feature, enable the Multi Instructor add-on from WordPress Admin > Academy LMS > Add-ons > Multi Instructor.

Once you enable the Multi Instructor addon, click on the setting icon, and you will see all courses. From here, edit an existing course or create a new one. Here, scroll down, and you’ll see a new section called Instructors under the Course Builder section. Here, simply click on the Add Instructor button to add instructors.

A new popup window will open when you click the Add Instructor button, allowing you to type the instructor’s name to build a list. Simply click on the box beside the instructor’s name and close the popup, and your instructor will be added to your course.

To add more teachers, follow the same procedure as before. When finished, click Update the course and Save Changes to close the window.

New instructors can assume complete control of any course they have been assigned, exactly like the primary instructor. But only the default/main instructor gets the shared revenue.
