The Organization, Course Number, and Course run values you enter when creating a course are part of the learner-visible course URL and cannot be changed. The base URL for the new course is in the format:

``https://your-domain/courses/course-v1:ORGANIZATION+COURSE_NUMBER+COURSE_RUN/``

So take care when entering values for the new course.

1. Open Studio at the URL provided by your administrator.

2. Click :guilabel:`New Course`. The Create a New Course screen opens.

3. Enter information for the new course:

* **Course Name**: The public display name of the course. You can override the name later in the Advanced Settings.

* **Organization**: Your school or organization. This value becomes part of the course URL and cannot be changed. You can override how the organization is displayed to learners in Advanced Settings.

* **Course Number**: The unique number that identifies your course. Note: This value becomes part of the course URL and cannot be changed. No spaces or special characters are allowed.

* **Course Run**: The term or unique run of the course. This value part of your course URL, so no spaces or special characters are allowed and it cannot be changed.

4. Click :guilabel:`Create`.

You are then taken to the empty Outline page in Studio.
