You'll need to watch some Craftsy classes to get an idea of how the course platform functions. Watch several classes to observe different teaching styles. Some mini-classes are free, so take advantage of the opportunity to learn from those, too.
So, if you're thinking, "I could teach a Craftsy class!", the next step would be to prepare a plan of what you would like to teach. At the time of this writing, Craftsy's standard class format is 7 lessons, with each lesson lasting about 20 minutes. You don't need 7 different projects, but should take photos of what each lesson will be covering.
Go to the "How to Become a Craftsy Instructor" page on Craftsy, and click on the course proposal form link. Fill out the form, and submit it!

Not all proposals are accepted.
But hey! Supposing Craftsy likes your proposal and accepts it! What happens next?
You will receive emails from a Craftsy contact person, with a formal title like "acquisitions editor" or "content editor". They will set up a convenient time to telephone you, and will help you through the process of preparing your class for the 3 day video shoot at their studios in Denver, Colorado. You'll also be sent a contract to sign.
Craftsy pays for your flight to Denver plus hotel accommodations for the 3 day video shoot, They will help with the travel planning. They'll also pay for any supplies that you need to purchase for your projects that you'll be demonstrating in your class. You'll need to submit the receipts for the supplies to be reimbursed for them.

You'll also need to prepare patterns for the class projects, as part of the downloadable course materials.

Showtime! Don't worry that you have to do everything perfectly in one take. The camera crew are super-nice people and will work with you to get your class to look great!
After the video shoot is done, you go home happy, and wait for your class to be edited, which takes about 6 to 8 weeks. You'll be notified when your class goes live! After that, you need to answer any student questions that come up in your class. Instructors giving personalized responses to student questions is what makes Craftsy classes truly interactive.
