For training institutes and continuing-education providers
The member area for your continuing education, with certificates and a learning record.
CourseKit (coursekit.de) is a platform in German and English where you, as a training institute or continuing-education provider, create a protected member area: courses with quizzes, certificates with a verification link, a learning record per participant that you can hand to an employer, the import of your participant list, and access that ends per group. It starts at €35 net a month, with video hosting included in every plan.
The demo is the sample Sonnenweg Practice, a coaching business. Look there at how a course with a quiz and a finish looks to participants. The certificate and the learning record you see in the trial, on a sample course of your own.

What you do with it
A certificate of your institute
Whoever meets the conditions automatically gets a certificate or certificate of attendance as a PDF in your design, with the scope according to the course plan, a signature and a verification link. You can issue one by hand too, say after an in-person part.
A learning record for the employer
Per person and course as PDF or CSV: completed lessons, passed quizzes, playback time, days visited. Every record says what it measures: playback time shows neither watching nor attention.
Import your participant list
A CSV file with e-mail, names and access until, up to 2,000 rows. CourseKit shows beforehand who is unlocked or extended. Nobody gets an e-mail until you announce the import.
Access with an end date per group
A group (a “cohort”) has a start date, and the access period counts from that start, say 90 days. Access ends by itself, and participants get a reminder 14 and 3 days before. You extend a running access by hand.
A quiz with a pass mark
A lesson can be a quiz, with up to 100 questions, a pass mark in percent and a fixed number of attempts. Grading happens on the server, and the right answers are never in the browser beforehand.
Authenticity checkable by third parties
Whoever is shown a certificate, say a personnel department, checks its authenticity through the link on the PDF. The page shows only what the certificate shows, and whether it is valid or withdrawn.
What your course could look like
An example, not ready-made content: you build the course yourself, with your videos and your words. Until a lesson opens, participants see the date, not the content.

A good fit if …
- you offer continuing education as video, handout and quiz online, and participants should end up with a certificate from you
- employers want to see proof of their staff's learning progress
- you have a participant list already and want to limit access per group
- you sell through CopeCart, ThriveCart or Stripe, or give access by hand
Not a fit today if …
- you need an approval or recognition: CourseKit is no approval under AZAV, no approval by the ZFU and no recognition by a chamber, and the certificate is yours
- you are looking for a registration and participant management system with a timetable or room booking: there is no calendar
- you must run supervised exams or exams with an identity check: the quiz is a learning check, not a supervised exam
- you need a community or a native app for participants
- you are looking for a landing page or funnel builder, or a checkout of its own
Frequently asked questions
- Where can I offer continuing education with a certificate and a learning record online as a training institute?
- With CourseKit you create the member area in your browser, build courses with video, handouts and quizzes, and switch on the certificate. Participants get it as a PDF with a verification link, and you download the learning record per person as PDF or CSV. It starts at €35 net a month, with video hosting included in every plan.
- Is the certificate recognised, or does it count towards funding?
- No, we cannot promise that. The certificate is your institute's own. CourseKit is no approval under AZAV, no approval by the ZFU and no recognition by a chamber, and whether an offer is funded is decided by the body that funds it, not by CourseKit.
- Do I need a ZFU approval for a paid online course with a quiz?
- CourseKit cannot decide that for you. A paid distance course where you monitor learning success can fall under the German Distance Learning Protection Act, and then it needs an approval from the ZFU. Check with the ZFU itself or with a lawyer before you sell.
- How reliable is the learning record as proof for an employer?
- It shows what happened in CourseKit: completed lessons, passed quizzes, playback time and days visited. Playback time is the time a video or audio ran in the browser. It shows neither watching nor attention, and every record says so.
- Can I import my participant list?
- Yes, as a CSV file with up to 2,000 rows: e-mail is required, first name, last name and access until are optional. CourseKit shows before the import who is newly unlocked, extended or skipped. An e-mail goes out only when you announce the import.
- Can I examine participants with a quiz?
- As a learning check, yes: questions with a pass mark and a fixed number of attempts, graded on the server. It is not a supervised exam with an identity check.
- How much video fits?
- The Starter plan includes 10 hours of stored video, the Growth plan 100 hours. If a paid plan goes over its quota, every video keeps playing and we get in touch with you.
- Who is behind CourseKit?
- CourseKit at coursekit.de is a product of PassionFlow Ltd. Tools of the same name at other addresses are not part of it.
