Client portals serve as a centralized platform where clients can access courses, communities, and other resources.

These metrics help businesses assess course completion rates, member growth, and engagement levels, enabling data-driven decisions for continual improvement.

The example showcases how the "Introduction" category includes sections such as "Welcome to the Course" and "About Your Instructor." Each section can be published or kept locked until certain criteria are met. This enables instructors to deliver content step-by-step, ensuring learners engage with materials in a structured manner.

The Details section is where you define your course’s identity. Input the course title, such as "Marathon Course," and provide a compelling description to entice potential learners. A product thumbnail can be added for visual representation, as seen in the image. These details help set expectations and communicate the purpose of the course to your audience.

We will create free Courses in this example.

Once a course is added, it appears as a card in the Learning section. You can manage it further using the three-dot menu, which allows you to delete, move, or copy a link to the course.

Clicking on a course provides detailed information about its structure. Users can navigate through categories, lessons, and objectives while interacting with instructors or other participants via the comment section at the bottom.
