What kind of academy this is built for
The software is the same for everyone. What differs is what you sell with it and to whom. Here are five kinds of academy we meet again and again, and what each one needs.
What always stays the same
The same software, five kinds of academy, and each one gets everything included.
Training with a certificate
Who you are
You run courses that end with proof of completion, often for companies and often over several days.
What makes it hard
The certificate has to be worth something, and the invoice has to come from you, not from a platform.
What you get
- Certificates with a number that can be verified at your address
- Invoices in your name, payouts to your account
- Invite and enrol learners instead of selling
- English and German for sites abroad
Coaching and online courses
Who you are
You sell to individuals, often from a small team, sometimes on your own.
What makes it hard
On a marketplace, the relationship with your customers belongs to the platform, and part of every sale stays there.
What you get
- Buy without an account, the account comes after the purchase
- Subscriptions for recurring revenue, not just single sales
- Bundles and discount codes for promotions
- Everything under your name, with no other courses next to yours
Seminars and events
Who you are
You fill dates in person or online, with rooms, catering and travel.
What makes it hard
A booking here is never just a price but a series of decisions, and in the end the attendee list has to be right.
What you get
- Dates with venue, time and access link, single or as a series
- Add-on options for catering, travel and allergies
- Prices for individuals and for couples
- Every paid booking is reported to your registration system

We usually reply the same working day.
Associations and clubs
Who you are
You train members, and your courses come with the membership.
What makes it hard
Courses are rarely sold and often just unlocked, and still someone wants to know who is how far along.
What you get
- Invite and unlock instead of selling
- Discount codes so members pay less or nothing
- Permissions per person, separate for head office and working groups
- Analytics that show where someone got stuck
Your in-house academy
Who you are
You train your own staff, across several locations and in several languages.
What makes it hard
Nothing is sold, but it has to stay clear who worked through what.
What you get
- Create accounts and enrol people without anyone buying
- Progress per person, per course and over time
- A certificate as proof, with a verifiable number
- English and German in the same academy
What stays the same for all five
- Your own address and your own logo
- Every payment straight to your account
- Zero percent of your revenue for us
- Everything included, nothing to buy on top
None of these quite fits?
Then let's talk about it. What fits you is not decided by your industry but by three questions: what you teach, who you sell to, and which address it should run under.
Let's talk aboutyour academy
Thirty minutes is enough. Afterwards you have an honest assessment, a price and a launch date.
