What it does
Running an online course means keeping students informed about schedules, new lessons, exam dates and other changes. Posting that news in a general blog or sending it by hand gets messy, and it often reaches people who are not even enrolled. This add-on solves that by tying each announcement to a course, so only the students enrolled in that course see it. It requires LearnPress and works inside the course structure you already have.
Announcements show up directly on the single course page, so learners see them while they study without leaving the lesson flow. If you want extra reach, you can turn on email notifications so students who are not logged in still get the message. All announcements are handled from one admin panel, where you can create, edit, filter and delete them. It suits course sites where instructors need a simple, organized channel for course news.
Best for
- Online course sites running LearnPress
- Instructors who post schedule changes and exam dates
- Training businesses sharing course news with enrolled learners
