GoHighLevel's memberships feature lets coaches, consultants, and course creators publish and sell training programs without stitching together separate tools. You set the pricing (free, one-time, or recurring), upload lessons, and even attach a community group, all from a single sub-account dashboard. Students can register, pay, and access content without ever leaving your branded experience.

Summary. GoHighLevel includes a built-in course builder under the Memberships section where you can create products, set pricing tiers, upload lesson media, and manage student access. Communities can be created inside the same sub-account and linked directly to a course, giving students a single place to learn and connect. Payments connect through GoHighLevel's native payment system, removing the need for third-party course platforms.
Steps
Create a course product
Go to Memberships in the sub-account sidebar, then Courses, and scroll to Products. Click to create a new course, add a title, description, and thumbnail, then configure pricing (free, one-time, or recurring) and connect your payment account.
Build out lessons and content
Inside the course editor, open the outline and click into each lesson to upload video or other media, add downloadable resources, and write a description. Save each lesson before moving on.
Attach a community group
Go to Communities, create a new group, and once it is live, use the Learning tab to add your course to the group. Set a price if applicable, and students can purchase and access content from the same space.
