Some courses are open-ended, and may not require a deadline to complete. Learners sign up to them and expect to take them at their own pace, or they may plan to be subscribed indefinitely.

How much do you expect your learners to already know before they start your course? Are they new to the field, or do they have some experience, such as a college degree or a certain number of years in the industry? Or is this their entry point to a new profession?
