How to use Client Portal for your online course

Laura Elizabeth Last update:

Our Client Portal customers are often amazed at how many different use cases there are for it. Once you get what Client Portal does, you start to see infinite possibilities for its uses.

"I am so glad I found Client Portal. It is very flexible and will help me grow from being a freelancer to an agency – and even selling online courses in the future without spending a lot of money on other platforms. Thanks for developing this! ❤️ "

—Natalia from Green Studio

One of those possibilities is online courseware. Now, Client Portal wasn't designed to be a courseware alternative. It doesn't have learner management features and a few other things you'd expect in an online course platform.

But Client Portal is surprisingly effective as courseware and in this new video and example portal we're going to show you how you can use it to create and sell online courses.
