Revolutionized Course Builder

Starting with the all-new updated course builder. With Tutor LMS 3.0, we’ve transformed the course creation process into something incredibly intuitive. The re-engineered course builder brings a structured, organized experience that feels familiar and easy to navigate.

The course builder is now divided into three sections: 

• Basics – To configure general course settings 
• Curriculum – To add topics, lessons, quizzes, and more
• Additional – To finish setting up the course

We have ditched the old WordPress backend look for the course builder and made it very modern for Tutor LMS 3.0. The course builder now feels better than ever to use, there’s a place for everything, and everything is in its place.

Next-Gen Quiz Builder

Finally, let’s talk about the incredible new quiz builder. We made the entire quiz creation process more streamlined and structured, and creating quizzes is now a breeze. 

In Tutor LMS 3.0, the quiz creation interface has undergone a major overhaul, moving from a tabular pop-up system to a full-screen layout, where all the options are integrated in one place.

The entire quiz creation UI is now cleaner, and more organized, allowing instructors to build quizzes with a more natural flow.

AI Studio: Your Creative Powerhouse

Creating engaging course content takes time, and generating multimedia materials can be overwhelming. We want our instructors to spend more time teaching and less time stressing about course creation.   

That’s where Tutor LMS AI studio comes in. With the power of AI, you can generate entire course outlines, lessons, quizzes, and even course feature images in a snap.

With just a prompt, you can create well-structured course content, saving you valuable time while maintaining high-quality standards. This feature is most helpful for those who want to quickly build a course structure or refresh content with minimal effort.

Sell Courses with The Native eCommerce

We could not be more excited to showcase the full power of our native eCommerce. Managing payments with bloated third-party plugins can lead to complications, slower performance, and unnecessary complexity. With Tutor LMS 3.0’s Native eCommerce system, you can now sell your courses entirely within the platform!

Our native eCommerce was designed with LMS’s in mind. It is lightweight, effective and you guessed it, fast. Let’s take a look at all that’s coming on launch: 

• 7 popular integrated payment gateways (with many more to come) 
• Advanced coupons feature
• Robust tax handling
• Efficient order management

Payment Gateways to Smooth Transactions

The eCommerce brings support for popular payment gateways such as PayPal, Stripe, Mollie, Klarna, Razorpay, Paystack, and Alipay, making it easier than ever for students to purchase courses from around the world in their preferred currency. 

Effortless Discounts with Coupons

Offering discounts is one of the best marketing tools to run promotions, reward loyal learners, or drive up sales. And what easier way to give discounts than using coupons?

You can create custom coupon codes or set up discounts that are automatically applied. Set validity periods and let the system handle everything at checkout, making it perfect for promotions or exclusive deals.

Easy Tax Configuration

Worried about taxes? Well, they don’t have to be taxing at all! You can set regional tax rates to be then auto-calculated for learners during checkout. Whether you sell to learners close to home or around the globe, you’ll be able to manage tax rates easily. 

Simplified Order Management

You can swiftly manage all orders, from updating orders to checking entire order histories. You can also offer specialized discounts or provide refunds in just a few clicks. You’ll be able to easily keep track of student purchases and resolve issues quickly with the new, user-friendly interface.

Flexible Plans, Unlimited Possibilities with Subscriptions

When we say you don’t have to leave Tutor LMS for anything, we mean it. Meet our brand-new built-in Subscription system—designed to give you complete control with flexible plans, recurring payments, and exclusive features.

Here’s a quick rundown of all that Subscriptions has to offer:

The ability to manage subscriptions directly within Tutor LMS means you no longer need external plugins like BooCommerce or others. This will not only speed up your site but also simplify your workflow, offering more flexibility when it comes to course pricing and recurring access.

Exciting Additions with H5P, Instructor Notebook, and More

You wanted it, and we got it! Tutor LMS 3.0 now supports H5P to bring interactive content to your courses. This is a completely free and open technology, as H5P is licensed with the MIT license, so all you have to do is enable our addon. Interactive content elevates a course and the entire eLearning experience as a whole, for learners. 

IInstructors can now stay within Tutor LMS to jot down ideas and notes with the new Notebook feature. As always, our aim is to provide everything you need without ever having to leave the platform.
