Overview
Many course sites deliver lessons but leave students on their own. BuddyBoss LearnDash addresses that by placing LearnDash course management inside the BuddyBoss environment. Students follow their progress through lessons and quizzes, and they also meet other learners in groups, forums and activity feeds. Instructors can build courses with full LearnDash functionality while members talk to each other around the same material.
The plugin fits membership sites, online academies and corporate training portals on WordPress. You can set up private or public groups for a course or topic, send notifications and messages, and adjust the layout to match your brand. Membership levels, subscriptions and payment gateways available in BuddyBoss and LearnDash can be used to organize paid access to your courses.
