Online Academy

An online academy for selling your courses on your own website. We design the course pages, configure the virtual classroom and give you panel access to manage the content.

What we build

Course discovery

Course pages organised around what you teach, who each course is for and what learners need before enrolling.

Virtual classroom

A WordPress website with a virtual classroom configured for your course structure. We define lessons, learner access and enrollment requirements together before the build.

Design and devices

UX and UI for the path from choosing a course to accessing its content, with responsive pages for phone, tablet and desktop.

Managing the academy

Panel access to manage course content. We agree the initial content, handover and any ongoing maintenance in the project scope.

Built into the academy

Found in search

Course pages written and structured around what learners search for, so new students can find the academy without paying for every visit.

Easy navigation

A clear path from the catalogue to enrolment to the first lesson. A learner should never have to ask where their course is.

Speed

Lessons, video and downloads load quickly, including on mobile data, because a slow lesson is an abandoned lesson.

Mobile learning

The classroom adapts to phones and tablets, where many learners do most of their studying.

Analytics

Reports on visits, enrolments and course progress, so you know which courses sell and where learners stop.

What turns visitors into students

A clear call to action

Each course page leads to one action, enrol, with the format and requirements visible before the button.

Student reviews

What past students say about a course is often what convinces someone still deciding.

Free content

Articles or sample lessons show how you teach and bring search traffic to the academy.

Email sign-up

Visitors who are not ready to enrol can subscribe to hear about new courses and start dates.

The people teaching

A photo and a short profile of you or your instructors. People choose a teacher before they choose a course.

Contact information

An email, phone or contact form for the questions learners ask before paying.

Define your academy

Scoped around your teaching model, not a generic page-count package.

Courses and content

Tell us how many courses you want to launch, how lessons are organised and which materials are ready. That defines the initial build.

Enrollment and access

We review how learners enroll, which content needs an account and whether payment integrations are required. Only the agreed features are included.

Hosting and maintenance

Domain, hosting, third-party licenses and ongoing support are specified in the written proposal, including any recurring costs.

From course plan to launch

Discovery

We review your courses, audience and enrollment flow, then document the scope and responsibilities.

Design and build

We design the course pages and configure the classroom around the agreed content and access requirements.

Testing and handover

We test enrollment, learner access and course navigation on the agreed devices, then hand over the panel before launch.

Before you ask

What does it cost?

The quote depends on the course structure, initial content and integrations. You receive the scope and costs in writing before work starts.

How is it paid?

Payment milestones are defined in the written proposal for your academy.

How long does it take?

The schedule depends on the scope, content readiness and integrations. We agree a delivery timeline after reviewing those requirements.

What is it built on?

WordPress with a virtual classroom configured for your courses. The classroom tools and any licenses are selected during scoping.

Will it work on phones?

Course and classroom pages are responsive. We test the agreed learner journey on phone, tablet and desktop.

Can I manage the courses?

You receive panel access for course content. We define the handover and distinguish routine content edits from changes that need development.

How does the whole process work?

You approve the scope and quote, send your course plan, brand material and the first course content, and we design, configure and test the academy with you before launch.

Will the academy appear on search engines?

It is built with the technical groundwork search engines need to crawl and index the course pages. Where it ranks depends on your subject and your content, so no position is promised.

What happens after launch?

You manage the courses from the panel. Ongoing support can be added for updates, new courses and the changes that need development.

Start your academy website

Tell us what you teach, how your courses are organised and what learners need to do on the site. We define the scope and provide a written quote before the build.
