Hi Deepak,

All the setup you describe looks good to me and should be doable as per
your needs. Some quick notes on it;

- Yes you can consider the classes as tasks, as you are considering courses
as product. So for delivering a product say course you may need to conduct
several classes. For the same you can use WorkEffortGoodStandard or similar
setup and multiple classes will be child of the work effort link to product.
- Courses could be consider as service products, it is just a thought. Some
other in community could give better thought on this.

I would say what you are thinking is in line with OFBiz practices, should
go in that direction or if required then customized data model design
should follow the product data model.
