Everything you need to know about using SmartLMS. Guides, tutorials, and answers to common questions.

Getting Started

How do I create an account?

Click the Register button on the homepage. You can sign up with your email address, or use Google/GitHub for one-click registration. After signing up, verify your email to activate your account.

How do I browse courses?

Navigate to the Courses page from the main menu. Use the search bar and category filters to find courses that match your interests. Each course page shows a detailed description, curriculum, reviews, and instructor information.

What are the system requirements?

SmartLMS works on any modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). For the best experience, we recommend a stable internet connection of at least 5 Mbps for video content. The platform is fully responsive and works on mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Course Enrollment

How do I enroll in a course?

Click on a course to view its details page. If it's free, click 'Enroll Now' to get instant access. For paid courses, click 'Buy Now' to complete the payment via Flutterwave. After successful payment, you'll be automatically enrolled.

Can I enroll in multiple courses?

Yes! There's no limit to how many courses you can enroll in. Your dashboard shows all your enrolled courses with progress tracking for each one.

Is there a refund policy?

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all paid courses. If you're not satisfied, contact our support team for a full refund.

Taking Lessons

How do I navigate between lessons?

Use the sidebar to see all sections and lessons. Click any lesson to jump directly to it. Use the Previous/Next buttons at the bottom of each lesson to move sequentially. You can also use the hamburger menu to toggle the sidebar on mobile.

How do I track my progress?

Click 'Mark Complete' at the bottom of each lesson when you finish it. Your progress is tracked automatically and displayed in the progress bar at the top of the learn page and on your dashboard.

Can I take notes?

Yes! Click the Notes icon in the bottom panel (on mobile) or the right sidebar to open the notes panel. You can add notes to any lesson, and they'll be saved for future reference.

Quizzes & Certificates

How do quizzes work?

Quizzes are available at the end of course sections. You need a passing score (usually 60-70%) to proceed. Each quiz has a time limit and you can retake it up to the maximum attempts allowed.

How do I earn a certificate?

Complete all lessons and pass all quizzes in a course to automatically receive a certificate of completion. Your certificate will appear in your Dashboard > Certificates section.

Can I share my certificate?

Yes! You can download your certificate as a PDF, share it directly to LinkedIn, or share the verification link with anyone. Each certificate has a unique ID that can be verified on our platform.
