Sound familiar?
Adding course titles, descriptions, lessons, topics, videos, and categories one by one inside Tutor LMS eats up hours you could spend teaching.
Tutor LMS has no built-in CSV or spreadsheet import, forcing you to recreate every course field through the admin UI — even if you already have the data.
Updating lesson content, video URLs, or course details across multiple courses means navigating each one individually with no bulk-edit shortcut.
Your Spreadsheet Becomes a Full Tutor LMS Course — Automatically
Tutor LMS CSV Course Importer bridges the gap between your data and your LMS. Prepare your course content once in Excel or Google Sheets, upload the CSV, and the plugin creates every course, topic, lesson, video, category, tag, and attachment in one shot.
Whether you are launching a brand-new course catalogue or editing an existing one, the importer handles all fields supported by Tutor LMS — including video sources, featured images, targeted audience, material includes, requirements, and more — without touching a single settings screen manually.
Everything you get
Full CSV Course Import
Import complete Tutor LMS courses directly from a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file, including every course field in a single upload.

Featured Image via ID
Assign featured images to courses and lessons by referencing WordPress media library IDs in the CSV.
