Here is how to share a course:
From the content builder, click the “Share” button to the left of the blue “Publish” button
From the search bar, find the admin or manager you want to invite to collaborate with you
Click the drop down and select either “can edit” or “can comment”
Can edit allows them to change anything in the course and republish
Can comment allows them to leave comments but not change anything
Click the blue “Invite” button on the right
Note: You can also click “copy link” on the bottom right and share the link via email or text and they will be able to comment
Here is how to publish a course:
From the content builder, click the blue publish button in the top right-hand corner of the course page.
Check the settings in the publish modal - they are the same settings available in the course detail page

The publish button is only clickable once your course has met the basic requirements of an assignable course.
