By default, Open edX only supports users with staff and/or superuser access to create a courses on the Studio or CMS. Another users can only edit content on available courses after they have been added as a course team.

But a user who does not have staff access can create a course when he has requested course creation access and has been approved by the administrator team. To request access to course creation, follow these steps.
