# Creating Live Classes

> Administrators can create and schedule their own live classes for members in addition to Kibu's daily programming.

![Clean Shot 2026 06 18 At 15 23 34@2x](https://mintcdn.com/kibu/PaECA7YJd03mVO7z/images/CleanShot-2026-06-18-at-15.23.34@2x.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=PaECA7YJd03mVO7z\&q=85\&s=d841ba3ffec050773b1dadaefb70b242)

Organizations can host their own live classes directly inside Kibu, alongside the daily sessions run by Kibu coaches. This is useful for staff-led activities, organization-specific programming, or recurring group sessions on your own timetable.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Creating live classes requires administrator access. Staff members can view and join classes but cannot create them.

## Creating a class

**1. Go to Live Classes**

Navigate to **Live Classes** from the top navigation bar.

**2. Click + Create Class**

The button is in the top right of the Live Classes page.

**3. Enter a title**

This appears on the class card that members and staff see. Keep it clear and descriptive, for example, "Morning Movement" or "Tuesday Social Skills Group."

**4. Add a description (optional)**

The first \~50 characters appear on the class card. Longer descriptions are tucked behind a "Show more" toggle. Use this to tell participants what to expect or what to bring.

**5. Set the start time and duration**

Choose the date, time, and timezone. Enter the duration in minutes. Classes default to 60 minutes, adjust to match your session length.

**6. Set a repeat cadence**

Choose whether the class repeats. Recurring classes are created automatically on the chosen schedule without needing to be re-entered each time.

**7. Select an instructor**

Choose the staff member who will lead the class. Their name and photo will appear on the class card.

**8. Click Create class**

The class is added to your Live Classes schedule immediately and is visible to all members and staff in your organization.

## What the class card shows

Once created, your class appears in the Live Classes schedule alongside Kibu's programming. Each card displays:

* Class title and description
* Instructor name and photo
* Scheduled time and timezone
* Duration
* Status - upcoming, live now, or ended

Members and staff can set a **Remind me** notification so they don't miss it.

## Managing your classes

> [accordion] Editing a class
>
> Open the class from the Live Classes schedule and select the edit option. You can update the title, description, start time, duration, repeat cadence, and instructor.

> [accordion] Canceling or deleting a class
>
> Open the class and select the delete or cancel option. For recurring classes, you can choose to delete just the one occurrence or all future instances in the series.

> [accordion] Viewing past classes
>
> Past classes remain visible in the schedule with an "ended" status. Use the calendar view to navigate to previous dates.

## Tips for running great sessions

* **Test your setup before going live.** Join the class a few minutes early to check audio, video, and screen sharing.
* **Use recurring classes for regular programming.** Setting a repeat cadence means your weekly groups show up automatically, no need to recreate them each week.
* **Keep descriptions short and specific.** The first 50 characters are what most people read before joining.
* **Share the schedule.** Members and staff can add the Kibu Live Classes calendar to Google Calendar or Outlook. See [Live Classes](https://help.kibu.com/content/live-classes.md) for instructions.

> [!TIP]
>
> Kibu's own daily programming runs alongside your organization's classes. Members see both in the same schedule view, so your sessions benefit from the same join experience as Kibu's built-in programming.
