  • Guessing your course structure and hoping it works
  • Spending weeks on content that’s redundant or a poor fit
  • No system for auditing what you’ve built
  • Paying $5,000–$15,000 for a curriculum designer
  • Recording 60 lessons then realizing half are unnecessary
  • Using AI as a generic content writer with generic results
After
  • A bulletproof curriculum built in days, not weeks
  • AI that acts as your personal instructional designer
  • A repeatable system you use for every course you create
  • The ability to audit any curriculum for gaps and redundancy
  • Genuine AI fluency — knowing when to delegate, how to prompt, and how to evaluate output
  • Prompts that generate professional learning objectives instantly
By the end, you have a reusable AI-powered curriculum system — not just one course.

Reusable System
Every prompt, template and framework works on any course, any topic, any platform — and you keep using it forever.

Real prompts.
Professional results.

Every prompt is structured, tested, and formatted for immediate use. These aren’t vague templates — they produce professional-grade curriculum work.

MODULE 01 · Transformation Statement Builder
I’m creating a course called [working title]. My topic is [topic] and my ideal student is [student description].

Write me a one-sentence transformation statement that captures exactly what changes for the student between Lesson 1 and the final lesson. It must reference a specific BEFORE state and a specific AFTER state.

Then tell me if this transformation is achievable in a single course, or if it needs to be scoped down.
MODULE 02 · Ideal Student Pressure Test
My ideal student is: [description].

Push back on this. Tell me:
(1) TOO BROAD — is this too broad to design a single course for?
(2) PRIOR KNOWLEDGE — what does this student already know that I can skip teaching?
(3) BLOCKING BELIEFS — what do they believe that I’ll need to change before they can learn anything else?
(4) DROP-OFF RISK — what would make them quit halfway through?

Be direct. Don’t validate the description if it doesn’t hold up.
MODULE 04 · Lesson Zero Architect
My course is called [title]. My transformation statement is [statement]. My ideal student starts at [starting point].

Design Lesson Zero for this course. This lesson must:
· Set the student’s expectations correctly
· Establish the one belief they need before anything else can land
· Remove the most common reason students disengage early

Do not write the lesson. Write the brief for it.
MODULE 06 · The Redundancy Test
Here is my full lesson list: [paste list].

Identify every lesson where a student could skip it and still complete the course transformation. For each one, tell me:
CUT — remove it entirely
MERGE — combine with which lesson, and why
REFRAME — what it needs to do differently to earn its place

Be ruthless. Padding a curriculum is the fastest way to lose a student’s trust.

From blank page to
production-ready curriculum.

The course follows a deliberate sequence. Each stage builds directly on the last — so by the end, you have a finished curriculum you’re confident in, not just notes and good intentions.

01
Modules 0 & 1 · Foundation
Build the mental model first
Before touching AI, you develop genuine AI fluency and learn the instructional design frameworks professionals use — Backward Design, Bloom’s Taxonomy, scaffolding. This is what separates structured curriculum from a list of topics.
02
Modules 2 & 3 · Research & Audit
Know exactly what to teach — and what to cut
Map your full topic space, identify what students actually need, and stress-test any existing curriculum for gaps, redundancy and poor sequencing. You enter the build phase with complete clarity on scope.
03
Module 4 · Build
Go from blank page to complete curriculum
Using the 5-prompt build sequence, you produce a fully structured curriculum — modules, lessons, learning objectives and action steps — in a single focused session. Live demo included so you see the exact process in real time.
04
Modules 5 & 6 · Refine & Ship
Cut ruthlessly, then prepare everything to deliver
Reduce your curriculum to only what’s load-bearing, simulate the student journey to find weak points, then use AI to generate your recording schedule, lesson scripts, worksheets and pre-launch plan — everything needed to go from curriculum to delivery.
What you have at the end A complete, production-ready curriculum  ·  Built in days, not months

One course. Three ways to use it.

Take the course, use the system, or add a professional audit to your enrollment. Same curriculum — three different starting points.

Straight answers

Yes — and this is one of the most important things to understand about this course. The curriculum design frameworks (Backward Design, Bloom’s Taxonomy, scaffolding) are the same whether you’re building an online course, a live workshop, a corporate training programme, or a music or fitness lesson series. The AI prompts work on any content. The only thing that changes is your delivery format — the structure principles are universal.
None in particular. This course is completely platform-agnostic. The curriculum design principles, AI prompts, and production methodology work on any platform — Kajabi, Learnworlds, Teachable, Thinkific, your own website with an LMS plugin like LifterLMS, a live Zoom workshop series, or a traditional in-person classroom. The only tool you need access to is an AI model (ChatGPT, Grok and Gemini all work fine but we recommend using Claude).
Any major AI model works — ChatGPT (including the free version), Claude, or Google Gemini. The prompts are designed to work across all of them. We do recommend using Claude as it is best suited for this type of work. A paid plan gives you longer context windows which is helpful for curriculum audits, but every prompt in the library is tested to work within free tier limits.
Yes — Module 3 alone is worth the enrollment if you have an existing course. It walks you through a professional-grade audit of your own curriculum, identifying redundancy, gaps, poor sequencing and scope creep in under an hour. Most educators apply it immediately and find 20–30% of their existing content can be improved, cut or restructured – which directly improves completion rates and student outcomes.
No technical skills required at all. Everything in this course runs through a standard AI chat interface – the same one you’d use to have a conversation. You type a prompt, read the output, and apply your judgment. The course teaches you what to ask and how to evaluate what comes back. If you can write an email, you can use every tool in this system.
Module 2 is built exactly for this situation. It walks you through using AI to map your topic space, analyze what competitors are and aren’t covering, and validate demand before you commit to building anything. Many students come in with a vague idea and leave Module 2 with a clearly defined, differentiated course concept – before they’ve written a single lesson.
Asking AI to “make you a course” produces generic, shallow output that looks like a course but doesn’t function like one. This course teaches you the instructional design frameworks — Backward Design, Bloom’s Taxonomy, scaffolding theory – that you need to prompt AI intelligently. The difference is like the difference between asking someone to “write me some code” vs. knowing software architecture well enough to specify exactly what you need. The output quality is categorically different.
The course itself is 7-9 hours of content. Most students apply the content live as they go – building or auditing their own curriculum alongside the lessons – and complete the full process in a focused weekend or across 2 weeks at a comfortable pace. Module 4 (the full curriculum build) typically takes 3–4 hours including the actual build work using the 5-prompt sequence.

Stop guessing.
Start building.

Every course you build from here uses this system. Every curriculum you audit is potential revenue. One enrollment — infinite applications.
