How CourseCo addresses pains and provides gains.

Up until relatively recently, running a course or training business was a time consuming affair. Course providers had to create their own manual system to collect, categorise and manage leads.

One could argue that there is nothing wrong with manual work. However course providers in today's day that still rely on manual processes are quite simply unnecessarily wasting valuable time.

Why does this matter? It matters because all manual tasks take time and distract you from your main job - selling and growing your course business.

In a world where every aspect of our work and personal lives is becoming digital, why should course providers keep following manual systems?

CourseCo is a complete solution for course providers which allows them to sell courses, accept instant online payments, manage their business and automate their course business. In this article we take a look at some of the pains that can be addressed and the gains that can be achieved with CourseCo.

Automation:

With CourseCo, every aspect of your business operations can be automated. Instead of manually sending one-off communications to staff and students, CourseCo users set up communications that automatically trigger when an event occurs. An example of this might be where students who owe fees are sent an automated reminder by text to pay the fees.

This system presents massive opportunity for the everyday course or training provider. Not only can they save time and money - but they can also provide a better service for students and the parents of students where applicable. Students and their parents can be sent automatic, real-time notifications on attendance, progress, course completion, certification and achievements.

Mobile Responsive:

The CourseCo system is light - even on the back end! We build websites for course providers using a mobile-first approach. This ensures that the website adapts to the size of the visitor’s device leading to an optimal viewing experience every time! By improving the user experience - conversion rates increase and bounce rates decrease. The other benefit of responsive web design is that sites load quickly without any distortions.

GDPR compliance:

For course providers in Europe it is incredibly important that they comply with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) legislation. This legislation came into effect on May 25, 2018, and it is designed to protect the personal information of individuals including students and course attendees.

CourseCo helps course and training providers to remain on the right side of the law. Users can create forms that capture permissions so that there is a digital permission trail for all contacts that register their interest in a course or service. CourseCo acts like a mini-CRM on the backend. This means that Course providers can also conduct regular data flow audits and remain confident that data moves from one location to another in a compliant fashion.

One single login:

CourseCo as a platform contains multiple applications to help course businesses market and upsell courses to customers. The real beauty about the system however is that all of these applications can be accessed under one single login. This saves time, hassle and money as staff can flex from one task to another with ease and focus on  driving what’s most important to the business.
