Schedule Live Classes/Webinars
1:1 Session Learning Activities
LearnWorlds allows you to offer personalized 1:1 sessions using the built-in Calendly integration. After connecting Calendly with your LearnWorlds school, you can create 1:1 session learning activities. These activities can be linked to specific event types in Calendly, enabling students to book personalized sessions with you, other course creators, or instructors.
Group Session Learning Activities
Via our Calendly integration, you can also schedule group sessions. This allows multiple users to join the same session, making it easier to scale your offerings. Each time slot can be booked by several users, facilitating group coaching or training sessions. For more details, check out our article on How to Create a Group Session Learning Activity.
Zoom Meetings/Webinars
You can integrate your Zoom account with LearnWorlds to start creating Zoom Learning Activities. These live Zoom sessions become part of your course content. Students enrolled in these courses can join meetings directly through the LearnWorlds platform on a desktop without needing to download the Zoom client. On mobile devices, they can participate via the Zoom app. Note that if you are using Zoom Webinars you can also enable the Q&A option.
Webex Meetings
Similar to Zoom, you can integrate your Webex account into your LearnWorlds school. Once integrated, you can start creating Webex Learning Activities in your courses since live Webex sessions are part of your course's activities.
Microsoft Teams
You can integrate your Microsoft Teams account with your school to set up live sessions within your courses. These sessions are incorporated into your course content, allowing enrolled students to join directly through the LearnWorlds platform on a desktop, without needing to download any additional apps. For mobile access, students can participate using the Microsoft Teams app.
Google Meet
Use your Google account to schedule and host live sessions or webinars. By integrating Google Meet with your LearnWorlds school, you can easily add live learning activities to your courses. Once connected, Google Meet becomes a seamless part of your teaching toolkit—making real-time interaction with learners smooth and effortless.
