SmartAuthor

SmartAuthor is a training course authoring suite integrated with the Academy10 LMS.

At the touch of a few buttons, SmartAuthor allows subject matter experts to create:

• Online tutorials
• Online Compliance courses
• Coaching sessions
• Certificated Programmes
• SmartProgrammes (blended courses)
