Course info (`Course` and `CourseInstance`) structured data

An illustration of how course info may show up on Google Search

You can help people find your course content by telling Google about your course using course info structured data. When you provide more detailed information about a course, such as reviewer ratings, pricing, and course details, Google can better understand your course and present a rich experience to people with the course info rich result.

There are two course rich result features that use the same schema.org Course type. If your site provides information about courses, you can be eligible for both features by following both implementation guides:

Course list: A rich result that lists courses from the same website.
Course info: A carousel that shows detailed course information from a variety of websites.

Feature availability

The course info rich result is available in English in all regions where Google Search is available. We hope to support more non-English courses in the future.

How to add structured data

Structured data is a standardized format for providing information about a page and classifying the page content. If you're new to structured data, you can learn more about how structured data works.

Here's an overview of how to build, test, and release structured data.

Add the required properties. Based on the format you're using, learn where to insert structured data on the page.
Using a CMS? It may be easier to use a plugin that's integrated into your CMS.
Using JavaScript? Learn how to generate structured data with JavaScript.
Follow the guidelines.
Validate your code using the Rich Results Test and fix any critical errors. Consider also fixing any non-critical issues that may be flagged in the tool, as they can help improve the quality of your structured data (however, this isn't necessary to be eligible for rich results).
Deploy a few pages that include your structured data and use the URL Inspection tool to test how Google sees the page. Be sure that your page is accessible to Google and not blocked by a robots.txt file, the noindex tag, or login requirements. If the page looks okay, you can ask Google to recrawl your URLs.
Note: Allow time for re-crawling and re-indexing. Remember that it may take several days after publishing a page for Google to find and crawl it.
To keep Google informed of future changes, we recommend that you submit a sitemap. You can automate this with the Search Console Sitemap API.

Use one of the following values: `Online`: All class lectures, assignments, and tests can be completed virtually. `Onsite`: The course is taught in person at a physical location. `Blended`: The course has both online and in-person components. If the class is `Onsite` or `Blended`, add the `location` property. "courseMode": "Online"
`courseSchedule`	`Schedule` Only one of `courseSchedule` or `courseWorkload` properties is required. We recommend the `courseSchedule` property if you want to highlight pacing (for example, 4 hours per week), or start and end dates. Otherwise, `courseWorkload` works for most cases. Information about how long the course takes the average user to complete, given a suggested pacing. Include start and end dates for courses that are on a fixed timeline. Here's an example of a paced course that can be started at any time: // This course takes 6 weeks to complete. "courseSchedule": { "@type": "Schedule", "repeatCount": 6 "repeatFrequency": "Weekly", } Here's an example of a paced course during a set time: // This course expects 1 hour per day during July 2023 "courseSchedule": { "@type": "Schedule", "duration": "PT1H", "repeatCount": 31 "repeatFrequency": "Daily", "startDate": "2023-07-01", "endDate": "2023-07-31" }
`courseSchedule.repeatCount`	`Integer` The numerical value for how long the course lasts for, in `repeatFrequency` units. For example, if the `repeatFrequency` is monthly and the `repeatCount` is 4, the course lasts for 4 months.
`courseSchedule.repeatFrequency`	`Text` The `duration` and `repeatCount` properties are relative to this field. Use one of the following values: `Daily`: The course happens daily. `Weekly`: The course happens weekly. `Monthly`: The course happens monthly. `Yearly`: The course happens yearly.
`courseWorkload`	`Text` Only one of `courseSchedule` or `courseWorkload` properties is required. We recommend the `courseSchedule` property if you want to highlight pacing (for example, 4 hours per week), or start and end dates. Otherwise, `courseWorkload` works for most cases. This field represents the total time to watch all videos and complete all assignments and exams for the course. Use the 8601 duration format. "courseWorkload": "PT22H"

Recommended properties
`courseSchedule.duration`	`Duration` The suggested pacing for how long the average user can expect to spend in `repeatFrequency` units, in 8601 duration format, if applicable. For example, if the `repeatFrequency` is monthly and the `duration` is `PT5H`, the user should expect to spend 5 hours per month. Don't specify the entire length of the course with this property. Use the `courseWorkload` property instead.
`courseSchedule.endDate`	`Date` The end date for the course, in 8601 date format (YYYY-MM-DD), if applicable.
`courseSchedule.startDate`	`Date` The start date for the course, in 8601 date format (YYYY-MM-DD), if applicable.
`image`	`URL` The URL that links to an image of the instructor, if applicable. Additional image guidelines: Image URLs must be crawlable and indexable. To check if Google can access your URLs, use the URL Inspection tool. Images must represent the marked up content. Images must be in a file format that's supported by Google Images. For best results, we recommend providing multiple high-resolution images (minimum of 50K pixels when multiplying width and height) with the following aspect ratios: 16x9, 4x3, and 1x1. For example: "image": [ "https://example.com/photos/1x1/photo.jpg", "https://example.com/photos/4x3/photo.jpg", "https://example.com/photos/16x9/photo.jpg" ]
`instructor`	Repeatable `Person` Information about the instructor for the course, if applicable. "instructor": [{ "@type": "Person", "name": "Dana A.", "description": "Professor at X-University", "image": "http://examplePerson.jpg" }]
`instructor.description`	`Text` The description of the instructor and their credentials, if applicable.
`instructor.name`	`Text` The name of the instructor, if applicable.
`location`	`Text` This property is only required for `Onsite` or `Blended` courses. The name or address (or both) of the physical location where the course will be taught, if applicable. "courseMode": "Blended", "location": "Example High School"

Course Program

Monitor rich results with Search Console

Search Console is a tool that helps you monitor how your pages perform in Google Search. You don't have to sign up for Search Console to be included in Google Search results, but it can help you understand and improve how Google sees your site. We recommend checking Search Console in the following cases:

After deploying structured data for the first time
After releasing new templates or updating your code
Analyzing traffic periodically

After deploying structured data for the first time

After Google has indexed your pages, look for issues using the relevant Rich result status report. Ideally, there will be an increase of valid items, and no increase in invalid items. If you find issues in your structured data:

Fix the invalid items.
Inspect a live URL to check if the issue persists.
Request validation using the status report.

After releasing new templates or updating your code

When you make significant changes to your website, monitor for increases in structured data invalid items.

If you see an increase in invalid items, perhaps you rolled out a new template that doesn't work, or your site interacts with the existing template in a new and bad way.
If you see a decrease in valid items (not matched by an increase in invalid items), perhaps you are no longer embedding structured data in your pages. Use the URL Inspection tool to learn what is causing the issue.

Analyzing traffic periodically

Analyze your Google Search traffic using the Performance Report. The data will show you how often your page appears as a rich result in Search, how often users click on it and what is the average position you appear on search results. You can also automatically pull these results with the Search Console API.

Troubleshooting

If you're having trouble implementing or debugging structured data, here are some resources that may help you.

If you're using a content management system (CMS) or someone else is taking care of your site, ask them to help you. Make sure to forward any Search Console message that details the issue to them.
Google does not guarantee that features that consume structured data will show up in search results. For a list of common reasons why Google may not show your content in a rich result, see the General Structured Data Guidelines.
You might have an error in your structured data. Check the list of structured data errors and the Unparsable structured data report.
If you received a structured data manual action against your page, the structured data on the page will be ignored (although the page can still appear in Google Search results). To fix structured data issues, use the Manual Actions report.
Review the guidelines again to identify if your content isn't compliant with the guidelines. The problem can be caused by either spammy content or spammy markup usage. However, the issue may not be a syntax issue, and so the Rich Results Test won't be able to identify these issues.
Troubleshoot missing rich results / drop in total rich results.
Allow time for re-crawling and re-indexing. Remember that it may take several days after publishing a page for Google to find and crawl it. For general questions about crawling and indexing, check the Google Search crawling and indexing FAQ.
Post a question in the Google Search Central forum.
