I Asked AI to Build a Course in 5 Minutes — Here’s What Happened

I’ve always been fascinated by AI’s ability to take on tasks that once felt labor-intensive and time-consuming. Creating training courses was always at the top of that list — painstakingly structuring lessons, writing quizzes, and designing content that actually sticks. So when I heard about EVA Pro, an AI-powered training platform that promises to turn documents and SOPs into interactive courses in minutes, I knew I had to try it.

First Impressions: The Dashboard

Logging into EVA Pro, the first thing I noticed was its clean, intuitive dashboard. A simple “Create Course” button sat front and center — a gentle invitation to dive in. Clicking it launched the EVA Chat Interface, which felt less like software and more like chatting with a very organized, helpful assistant.

Step 1: Defining the Course

Once in the chat interface, EVA asked me to describe the class I wanted to create. I typed a brief description, something along the lines of “introductory course on effective remote team management.” Next, EVA prompted me to choose a difficulty level — beginner, intermediate, or advanced.

Here’s where EVA Pro started to show its magic: I chose Auto Generation for a completely hands-off experience. Within seconds, EVA acknowledged my request and explained that the course would be ready shortly under the “In Review” tab.

This option is perfect if you want to create a full course quickly and effortlessly. Just a few inputs, and the AI handles the heavy lifting.

Step 2: Watching AI Build a Course

While waiting, I explored EVA’s Course Builder for context. Unlike Auto Generation, the Course Builder gives you full control over each element of your course: titles, slides, transcripts, quizzes, and media. You can even regenerate individual slides or quizzes if you want to tweak them.

But for my experiment, I left EVA to its own devices with Auto Generation. Within minutes, my course appeared under In Review, ready for inspection.

Auto Generation is fast; Course Builder is customizable. You can choose your own adventure depending on whether speed or control is your priority.

Step 3: Reviewing the Generated Course

Clicking on the course, I was greeted with a complete course structure: modules, lessons, quizzes, and even suggested certifications. Every piece felt thoughtfully organized, and the suggested flow of content made intuitive sense.

What amazed me most: with a single prompt, EVA generated not only lessons but also quizzes, certificates, and even course transcripts. The platform had effectively done the work of a full instructional design team in under five minutes.

Step-by-step highlight of what Auto Generation delivered:

1. Full course structure with modules and lessons
2. Bullet-point content for each slide
3. Quizzes and suggested answers
4. Certificates for course completion

At this point, I could have clicked Publish Course, and it would have been ready to share with my team.

Step 4: Optional Customization with Course Builder

Curious, I switched briefly to the Course Builder to see what customization looked like. Here’s the workflow:

1. Edit course titles and structure (optional “Regenerate with EVA”)
2. Edit slide bullet points (regenerate slides or individual elements)
3. Edit course transcripts (pronunciation editor available)
4. Edit quizzes (regenerate entire quizzes or individual questions)
5. Edit media (images and voices)

This level of control makes EVA Pro suitable for teams that need precision or want to add a personal touch to AI-generated content.

Auto Generation is incredible for speed; Course Builder is perfect for refinement and branding.

Step 5: Assigning the Course to My Team

After publishing, I navigated to the My Team section. Adding members was simple: enter their details, give access, and then assign courses to individuals or departments. Within minutes, my team had a fully structured, AI-generated course ready to start learning.

What I Learned

1. AI can drastically reduce time: What once took hours of planning and content creation, EVA Pro handled in five minutes.
2. Speed doesn’t compromise quality: The generated course was coherent, structured, and quiz-ready.
3. Customization is still possible: The Course Builder ensures teams can refine content to match tone, style, and branding.
4. Team integration is seamless: Adding members and assigning courses is straightforward.

This experience didn’t just show me that AI can create courses — it demonstrated how practical and accessible AI-powered learning can be for teams of any size.

Final Thoughts

Creating a course no longer has to be a long, draining process. Platforms like EVA Pro are changing the game by letting you go from idea to published course in minutes. Whether you’re a solo trainer, a team lead, or an HR professional, this AI-powered workflow saves time, enhances learning experiences, and keeps your team engaged.
