Learning Management System (LMS) Case Studies

Teachable LMS System

E-learning has gone to the dogs

Good Dog in a Box needed an LMS system that allowed an unlimited number of users to access their system for a flat fee that would issue certificates to students who watched their content. Teachable was the perfect system for this use case. The site was programmed to by-pass Teachable’s payment system and use Good Dog’s website for online course purchases, as well as the company’s sister site, Good Dog Pro. The URL dr set up Teachable and integrated the LMS with WordPress, WooCommerce, MailChimp, and Affiliate WP. Read the full case study.

We customized LearnDash with WooCommerce, Affiliate WP, Paid Membership Pro, WooCommerce Subscriptions, CartFlows, and Gravity Forms. Our own WP managed hosting keeps everything running smoothly.
