It’s Aidan here.


I am co-owner of the Alltrainedup platform. I come from a training background myself – specialising in areas of health & safety.

With our 2 sided marketplace model we have dedicated one side of the platform to you guys. We have built the platform to solve different problems for different training provider types & my own knowledge & experience has been a fundamental part of the design based partly on some of the issues I have encountered as a training provider.

So to explain a little more about what we are – we’ve designed a training & learning management system with many built in features to help both you the trainer as well as providing solutions for companies & their employees. Working in between the two sides of the platform we have an App which offers features for the users - this App has functions that work alongside your dashboard.

To become a registered trainer on our platform is not a difficult process thanks to the careful planning & development carried out behind the scenes. In just a few simple steps you can have yourself set up with your very own dashboard offering you a very user friendly workplace to create your own courses & get visible online.

We offer various options when creating courses from your dashboard – providing you with 3 types of delivery options to create your course.

If you want to continue to deliver classroom based courses & need a system to get you visible on line & manage the process of taking bookings; we have all the solutions you need.

If you want to run a webinar & need a system to host your webinar & sell tickets & all the bits in between; we have the solutions you need.

If you prefer to create your material & allow your participants to take your course on a self paced basis; we have the solution to your needs.

It is a strong opinion of mine that training can be seen as an inconvenience to some. Are there companies out there who ignore their need to send staff on a course because it’s a hassle for them? Yes there are companies out there – I have been speaking with some company owners about this & costs aside; time plays a major role in their reluctance to send staff on a course. Having this in mind has also helped form some of the thought process behind the scenes.

I am very aware that we are in a competitive space when it comes to similar platform types but that gives me confidence that what we have to offer is in demand. We have intentionally chosen to be a little different – one of the most important factors for us is to give each training provider their own identity where other models opt for a different approach. There are no upfront joining fees to get yourself registered on our platform either – we work on a percentage basis which we take only after someone has purchased a course from you. I’ve put together some questions that you may have & given some explanations – if ever you need more clarification on these questions or indeed you have any other questions then I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you.

I am looking for more visibility online to increase my course bookings.
Who isn’t, right? Once you publish a course on our platform you are provided with a unique link for that course which becomes an instantly sellable product. That link allows you to sell as many of your courses as you wish; until you’ve unpublished your course off our platform.
What does that mean?
Put simply it means that anyone can click on your link & purchase from you. We manage the whole process on your behalf. We take payments from your buyer & carry out all the necessary administration needed, leaving you to worry about delivery of your course.
Are you looking for a booking management system for a course you are running at a future date?
Using our lite version we have all the tools needed to create your event, sell your tickets & collect funds from your participants.
Automation takes care of the whole process – you simply need to grab your link & share it across your social channels.
Are you getting bogged down in administrative duties?
Using automation we take away some of those duties.
From collecting payment, issuing & correction of examinations you’ve set in your dashboard & the issuing of your certificates, we have you covered; allowing you to spend more time creating course content & training your people.
Are the courses you provide regulated by law?
The system sends out timely notifications to employers & trainees where mandatory training needs renewal. Once you set the validity of the course you provide, the system picks up the date & ensures your trainee isn’t carrying out their duties whilst out of certification.
I want to gain more exposure with my training – can your platform help?
Absolutely we can help. As a user on our platform you get online visibility as soon as you publish your first course. Every course you add gives you a unique shareable link to that course. You automatically appear on our online catalogue of training providers too.
What if I want to update my course material?
Log into your dashboard & drill down into the course you need to update.
As soon as you have made the necessary changes to your material & saved your updates, your changes are reflected in the next course that’s purchased from you.
How will I get paid?
Using more automation we have made this a straight forward process.
When your course is purchased off our platform, Stripe automation kicks in immediately & splits out the funds to you once our percentage has been deducted.
Do I need to have a Stripe account to get paid?
Yes. We have chosen Stripe as our payment gateway. Having done our research, we conclude that their platform meets our needs for both you the trainer & ourselves. If you don’t have a Stripe account set up you can get one here...https://dashboard.stripe.com/register.
Once your account has been approved on their platform you attach it to your trainer profile on our platform. Until your account has been activated on Stripe you cannot complete your trainer profile on our platform.
I want to provide a communication channel for my course participants, can you help?
Using our premium version we offer you a built in messaging service that allows you to send & receive messages & chat privately with any trainee who wishes to discuss any course material.
What happens when one of my courses is purchased?
First up, we all celebrate – that’s important, right?
Once a course has been purchased, you will receive an email to advise that (e.g. Joe Bloggs) has purchased one of your courses.
I want to display my trainer qualifications, do you provide a facility?
Yes we do indeed & we would encourage all trainers to display their qualifications on their profile.
Particularly where health & safety training is concerned; having up to date valid training qualifications displayed on your profile instils confidence that you are offering current material & content to your trainees & course participants.
I am delivering a course; can I send out course notes to my attendees from my dashboard?
Absolutely you can. Using our premium version you can build out your notes using the step by step sub topics section. Adding pdf documents created on your own computer, you upload your material into your course curriculum along with any supporting videos you wish to include.
I want to run a continuous course each month, how do I manage my dashboard?
Once you have created & published a course on your dashboard, you get the option to add in extra dates by adding an extra cohort, selecting the dates you are planning your next course.
Once changes are made & saved, those wishing to purchase your course can select the most suitable date for them to go on your course – this allows you to plan ahead too.
Where will people be able to locate & purchase my courses my courses?
As soon as you hit publish on your course, you are now online. It sounds very easy, doesn’t it?
Actually it is & we have designed it like that to make it as easy as possible for you to sell your training but also for others to purchase your training.
Your courses are visible to all companies using our platform from their catalogue section.
Employees using our App also have access to this catalogue from their device.
Can I track sales of my courses & payments owed to me?
This is very important so as to monitor & measure which of your courses are performing better than others; an opportunity to enhance your material on the course that are not performing so well.
When you log into your dashboard, within each course there is an analytics section.
We offer you an option to create a QR code for your course. Our analytics show you how many people are clicking through on your links.
Here you will also see what sales are made & what monies you have withdrawn from your account.
Do I need to have my own insurance?
The simple answer is yes. If you are showing someone how to operate a machine for example but you are deemed to have shown them wrongly which results in an accident; you need to have professional indemnity insurance in order to limit your liability. This covers you in the event you are alleged to have provided inadequate advice that causes loss of earnings to your client.
As part of creating your trainers profile, you upload your insurance certificates to show that your policy is valid - this is one of our internal trainer validation requirements. Knowing that there are some providers carrying out their training whilst not being insured goes against our code of practice – having valid insurance will be a prerequisite in order to get access to your dashboard where health & safety training is being provided by you.
As a training provider myself I understand the problems encountered by both the training provider & those who use their services. I am confident that our business model has the ability to solve many problems that arise in the world of training.
If you do feel that we can offer you some assistance with your training provision, go ahead & sign up for a dashboard here

All the best,
Aidan.
