Design courses to work smoothly on LearnUpon
These requirements apply to all customers.
LearnUpon lets you build courses with the tools that work for you, and work with the content you already use. Find the articles that address your questions about how to build smooth-running courses.
LearnUpon is a Software as a Service (SaaS) product based on cloud infrastructure powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS).
LearnUpon has no direct operating system, hardware, plug-in or monitor requirements. LearnUpon's main requirement is a supported browser. You need to run a version of the browser software that the software manufacturer currently maintains with updates.
