In this section, we will begin to look at the tools of the trade for recording, editing, and publishing your online training courses. Some of the hardware or equipment will need to be purchased for you to sound and look the best. Other items can be purchased later. The equipment I am suggesting is on the lower-end price scale but is still good to get started. There are also online tools you can use, mostly for free, when creating your course before you go live and publish it. This section will cover many of those tools.
