Purpose

This document explains how tutors, companies, and approved contributors may publish courses.

Overview

Axodus Academy may allow Axodus Core, independent tutors, companies, DAOs, partners, and content creators to publish educational content. This creates an education marketplace and knowledge economy, but it requires validation, pricing, access rules, fee distribution, quality standards, risk review, and governance alignment.

Publisher Types

• Axodus Core
• Independent tutor
• Company or partner
• DAO or sub-DAO
• ACS-assisted content with human review

Course Types

• Free onboarding
• Paid course
• Certification track
• Product training
• Governance training
• Trading training
• Partner course
• Tutor course

Trading training must include risk language and must not imply profit guarantees.

Course Parameters

Course parameters may include price, accepted currencies, royalties, commissions, operational fees, access rules, reward logic, validation requirements, and Marketplace integration.

Course records should include title, description, category, difficulty, language, publisher type, tutor or organization, status, access type, price, accepted currencies, reward policy, certification policy, marketplace listing, prerequisites, objectives, modules, assessments, Proof of Knowledge requirements, refund policy if any, fee policies, risk disclosures, governance review status, ACS review status, quality review status, publication date, and last updated date.

Publishing Flow

1. Publisher registers or creates a profile.
2. Validation status is checked.
3. Course draft is created.
4. Objectives, modules, lessons, access type, price, currencies, rewards, and certification rules are defined.
5. Content quality, claims, risk, and ACS-assisted review occur.
6. Governance or policy review occurs when rewards, tokenomics, governance, or high-risk products are affected.
7. Marketplace listing is created if commercial.
8. Course is published.
9. Learner feedback, completion, refund, and abuse signals are monitored.
10. Course updates use versioning and reward policy revalidation when relevant.

Validation

Courses should be reviewed for quality, accuracy, risk language, constitutional alignment, and abuse potential before official publication.

Financial Distribution

Course commerce may include tutor revenue, platform fees, royalties, operational fees, treasury allocation, referral fees, or affiliate fees if policy defines them. Do not invent final percentages or supported payment assets.

Status

Exact publishing workflow, contracts, fees, and approval rules remain under specification.
