Online course platform package

A good fit

Course creators and small e-learning businesses selling to the public, training organisations moving classroom material online, and corporate academies delivering internal programmes to staff. It suits a platform owner who wants the catalogue, revenue and completions in one view, instructors who build courses and answer learner questions, support staff who handle enrolments and refunds, learners who want to pick up where they left off on any device, and, where corporate seats are used, managers who need to see their team's progress.

Also worth knowing

It is less suited to exam boards and certification bodies whose core need is secure timed assessment with a large question bank, which has its own package, and to tutoring businesses selling live one-to-one lessons, which also have a package of their own. It does not host or transcode video itself; it connects to the video host you choose.

Deployment and ownership

The package runs on your own hosting or on hosting we manage for you; the choice is made in the proposal and can be changed later. You own the code, the course content and the learner data. Courses, learners, progress, quiz results and sales can be exported at any time in standard formats, and nothing in the package stops you moving to another provider.

Maintenance

Maintenance is optional and scoped separately from the setup. When taken, it covers security updates to the platform and its dependencies, monitoring of payment callbacks, video host connections and email delivery, backups with restore tests, and a monthly window for small configuration changes such as a new membership tier or a changed attempt limit. Larger changes are quoted as change requests.
