Updated over 2 weeks ago

Automation in EducateMe helps reduce manual workload by triggering actions based on learner activity, course progress, or inactivity. This feature supports a wide variety of workflows, enabling organizations to streamline onboarding, training assignment, communication, and compliance processes.

Automation Feature

Follow along in our video to see how automation can save time and improve consistency across your learning programs:


Possible Use Cases

  • After a learner is added to course X, send an email instruction with course rules and useful resources.

  • After a learner has completed activity X of course Y, send automated emails to the team members and assign a new course.

  • Assign a learner to course X in a week after they joined the learning space, and to course Y in 1 week after the previous action.

  • Suspend access to the platform after a user has not been active for X days

  • And many, many more automated scenarios..


Possible Triggers

  • New Learner is Created
