Certificates range from completion certificates to proctored and accredited certifications, with integrations for LinkedIn, Credly, Accredible and Caveon. Training can be sold through course purchases, learning paths, subscriptions, training credits and promo codes, using Stripe, PayPal or Salesforce.

Integrations with Salesforce, Gainsight, Google Analytics, Zoom, Webex, GoTo and Zendesk let customer-facing teams see account-level training activity. Published customer stories include Smartsheet, which reports more than $1M in training revenue in its first year.

Pricing combines an annual plan with a fee based on yearly active learners, so cost follows academy usage.
