Show an administrator assigning a course, then what the learner sees and what progress the product reports. Be clear about what that status does and doesn't establish. ![Laptop with a blank screen and smartphone on a desk](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/laptop.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Jakub Zerdzicki / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/modern-workspace-with-laptop-and-smartphone-38164328/).

Explain whether that state means opened, worked through, or completed under the configured process. Do not automatically present it as proof that the learner has mastered the subject. ## Before writing the script Prepare current demo screens and the roles, status definitions and confirmed features shown in the example. Check which terms your audience already knows and who will update the film when the program or process changes. Use clearly fictional people and records in examples. ![Group attending a training session in an office](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/training.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Mikhail Nilov / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/woman-giving-presentation-in-office-9301152/). [Pexels License](https://www.pexels.com/license/).* ## Check what people take away Use it to introduce the product. Ask what the administrator does and what the progress indicator actually tells them. If completion and learning become the same thing in the viewer's answer, change the terms. The film explains the tool and opens a discussion about how the buyer plans to teach. ## Related reading - [Show what someone can do with your software](https://caprivideo.com/guides/saas-video-production) - [A course introduction isn't a lesson](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/training-provider-videos) ## Related pages - [Industry group: Education & community](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector) - [A little more background: Show what someone can do with your software](https://caprivideo.com/guides/saas-video-production) - [Show supporters what their contribution supports](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/nonprofit-explainer-videos): Connect a documented problem with the organization's real activities and distinguish plans from demonstrated outcomes. - [Help members use the benefits they've joined for](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/membership-organization-videos): Show where members access a few real services, including conditions that differ by membership type. - [Explain the position and how people can get involved](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/advocacy-explainer-videos): Keep sourced facts, the organization's views and real participation options clear throughout an advocacy film. - [What happens after someone submits the form?](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/public-service-explainer-videos): Follow a public-service request from receipt onward, with clear status labels and a visible contact for questions. - [Show the road to a license in clear steps](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/driving-school-explainer-videos): Show learners and parents how sign-up, classroom hours, driving lessons and the test work, and how costs add up. - [Help learners find the right course level](https://caprivideo.com/industries/education-public-sector/language-school-explainer-videos): Show prospects how placement, course formats and exams work and how to enroll. ## See your offer as a video We create a free watermarked video for your business from your website.
