Your programs are great. Your platform should be too.
Your learners experience more than just your sessions.
Make sure the platform matches the quality of your programs.
You became a facilitator to create impact, not do admin
You shouldn't be spending hours and hours per cohort on learner admin. That's time that could go into designing and refining activities, tailoring your content for the cohort, and doing the reflective practice that makes great facilitators even better.
Learners show up unprepared
Prework doesn't get done, so you spend the first hour of every session catching people up.
8-10 hours of
admin per cohort
Chasing learners, sharing resources, answering platform questions, and sending reminders.
Your platform lets
you down
The online pre- and post-work experience is clunky and disconnected.
Behaviour change
doesn't stick
Without structured follow-up after the program, participants forget what they learned.
Purpose-built for professional development
Guroo Academy was built for cohort-based programs delivered by expert facilitators. The platform is designed around blended delivery: pre-session preparation, live workshops, and sustained post-program engagement.
That means everything your learners need, like prework, diagnostics, session preparation, resources, tasks, reminders, and post-program follow-up sits in one place, in a clear and structured experience.
No confusion about where to go for what, and an online experience that matches the quality of your programs.
Build a complete learning experience in four steps
Design your learner journey
Define your transfer, withdrawal, and refund policies once. Set up payment methods and terms. Add your credit on hold and prepayment rules. Everything you've been managing manually gets built into the system.
Automate the busywork
Build all your pricing variations, like early bird rates, standard pricing, team discounts, alumni rates, corporate packages, partner pricing. Create discount codes that automatically apply and track usage.
Track learner engagement
See who has completed their prework, who's engaged with the online content, and who might need a nudge – before the session starts. Arrive knowing your cohort, so you can tailor your facilitation to the group.
Extend the learning journey
Keep participants engaged after the live sessions end. Structured follow-up activities, peer connection, and refreshers ensure that what was learned in the room has a better chance of changing behaviour at work.
Deliver a learning experience that goes beyond the session
Blended program design
Build your complete program experience in one place, so learners always know what's expected of them and when.
Schedule in-person and online sessions, onboard learners with a program introduction, provide pre- and post-session learning materials, and give learners a session calendar with diary integration and a resources library to support them throughout.
Engagement
between sessions
Keep learners engaged at every stage of the program - not just during sessions.
Automated prework reminders and nudges, pre-session preparation and resource access, action learning tasks and written submissions, socially shared tasks and peer feedback, a comments feed and class noticeboard, and a cohort directory all work together to sustain momentum and build peer connection between sessions.
Diagnostics, benchmarking and assessment
Run pre-program diagnostics to benchmark your learners' starting point and tailor your facilitation to what the group needs. Multi-indicator capability diagnostics, pre- and post-learning benchmarking, adaptive learning based on diagnostic results, and reporting for facilitators give you the insight to design better programs.
When it comes to assessment, include formative or competency-based tasks that give learners meaningful feedback on their progress, with flexible grading options, a gradebook and assessment inbox, and short response or portfolio-based submissions.
Social learning
Social learning tools help participants share ideas, learn from each other, and build peer networks that help learning stick. Socially shared tasks and peer feedback, a comments feed and class noticeboard, a cohort directory for peer connection, small group sessions and discussion groups, and class responses with a shared task feed all contribute to a richer, more connected learning experience.
From administrator to
expert educator
Build by people who take
learning seriously
Guroo Academy was designed by people who understand learning design and delivery and the standards expert facilitators hold themselves to. We know that the online experience around your program either supports or undermines everything you're trying to achieve in the room.
Expert facilitators delivering high-value professional development use Guroo Academy to run the learner experience before, during, and after their programs. The platform handles the logistics so they can focus on what they do best.
