Course creation often feels like it takes weeks or even months. Between planning, writing, designing and publishing, it can feel like a never-ending project. But with the right tools, you can shortcut the process.
That is where SafetyCulture comes in. It’s not a Thinkific or Kajabi replacement (you can’t sell public courses through it). Instead, it’s designed for workplace learning, things like onboarding, compliance and staff development.
For online course creators working with companies or training their own teams, SafetyCulture AI course builder makes it possible to go from idea to published course in just a few minutes.

What is SafetyCulture?
SafetyCulture is best known as a workplace operations platform, but its learning tool is straightforward and surprisingly flexible.
- Perfect for employee onboarding
- Useful for compliance and professional development
- A great way to prototype course ideas or run a beta test for feedback
- Flexible enough to deliver training internally for client teams
Step 1: Use SafetyCulture AI to Create a Course Prompt
On the SafetyCulture dashboard, head into the Training section. From here, you can generate a new course with AI by simply typing in a description.
Tip: Adding measurable details (“8-minute course,” “5 key mistakes to avoid”) often produces more structured outlines.

Step 2: Review and Update the Draft
The SafetyCulture AI creates a course outline with lessons and slides (think: modules → chapters → activities). From here you can:
- Change course details (title, image, description)
- Translate into other languages if you’re working with global clients
- Reorganise the menu by adding sections and dragging modules into place
This step turns a raw AI draft into a structured course that fits your context.

Step 3: Add Interactivity with Lessons & Quizzes
Dry content leads to disengaged learners. SafetyCulture’s slide library gives you options to add:
- Content slides (videos, text, images)
- Interactive slides (accordions, timelines, click-to-reveal activities)
- Quizzes (multiple choice, scenario-based, true/false)
You can even import slides from Google Slides, PowerPoint or Articulate.
In the video, I added a quiz lesson using AI. The questions were generated instantly, complete with correct/incorrect answers and immediate feedback.
Step 4: Update Slide Content
Every slide has unique editing options on the right panel. For example, you can:
- change text
- update titles
- edit feedback
- add images
This flexibility means you can quickly adapt AI-generated material into something that feels tailored and practical.

Step 6: Update Themes (Branding Matters)
Courses should reflect your brand or your client’s brand. SafetyCulture gives you two options:
- Default theme → set platform-wide colours, logos, and fonts
- Course-specific theme → tailor branding for an individual client or course
This feature is especially powerful for B2B creators delivering training to multiple clients.
See the video walkthrough at Update Platform Theme and Course-Specific Theme here.
Step 7: Share, Publish, and Assign Learners
Once your course is ready, you can:
- Share a preview link for review
- Publish with details like mandatory vs. optional training
- Assign learners (or groups of learners) directly within the platform
You can even generate a QR code for easy access.
See the steps to Publish a Course and Assign Users in this video here.
Step 8: Track Analytics
Final Thoughts
With SafetyCulture AI, you can go from course idea → AI draft → polished training → published content in minutes.
It’s not built to sell courses to the public, but for workplace training, prototyping and internal rollouts, it’s fast, flexible and effective.
