This is tremendous news if you’ve been planning to create and sell courses online. Local company, WooThemes, has developed a WordPress plugin called Sensei that enables you to build courses, write lessons, and craft exams to test your learners.
How Sensei works
- Courses are built on the basic “post” principle, using “Lessons” as a custom post type
- Users sign up using the traditional WordPress registration. Each learner has their own dashboard and can track their progress through lessons and coursework
- You can charge for your courses by using the wildly popular (and free) WooCommerce plugin which integrates with Sensei
- Sensei includes course analytics, so you can monitor your content, results and students
- As an added bonus, the plugin is designed to work with any well-coded WordPress theme

Sensei is available for the introductory price of $79 (single site licence) for a “limited time”, so if you’re interested, visit WooThemes for more info while the promotion is still running.
Excellent plugin!
WooThemes are an awesome company too, that support local charities. Over the Christmas period they had a promotion where some of the profits were donated to African Tails to help our street dogs. Very kind people with a big heart, and big plugins!
Big up guys!
