How does Arlo’s training & course booking system work?
Let’s walk through the lifecycle of a training course…
Plan your training courses & sessions
With Arlo, you can effortlessly organize your entire course calendar. Templates and ready-made presets ensure that when a course runs multiple times, you don’t have to re-enter all the details.
Publish to your website
Use Arlo’s intuitive website builder, or integrate it with your current site, so that newly scheduled courses appear online automatically—ready for learners to discover and sign up.
Manage, take, and accept bookings
Participants can register and pay directly on your site, with custom enrollment forms collecting exactly the information you need. You can even add optional sessions or extras to boost revenue.
Automate all communications
Every email—from order confirmations and invoices to instructions and pre-course reading—is dispatched automatically, keeping everyone informed without extra effort.
Deliver your courses in multiple formats
Host traditional in-person classes, run live webinars, or create blended learning experiences that combine multiple sessions and eLearning content. With Arlo, you’re free to choose the best method for your audience.
Course certificates, learner surveys and more
After the course ends, Arlo can automatically send out personalized certificates to participants, invite feedback through surveys, and encourage continued learning with upcoming course recommendations..
Common questions
Course booking systems are used to collect course booking on your website. It’s likely to include course scheduling tools, customizable booking forms and credit card payment facility. Some software goes further by allowing a richer ecommerce experience, accepting other forms of payment (eg. invoice), and automating course management processes – such as reminder emails, waitlists and course transfers.
1. Training companies that repeatedly deliver repeat courses and need a streamlined way to handle the process.
2. Internal training teams that run courses for staff without charging fees.
3. Commercial training providers offering paid courses to customers.
4. Training organizations delivering blended learning—combining in-person, online, and eLearning formats—and seeking an all-in-one platform to package these offerings
If you’re putting on more than a couple of courses a month we’d strongly recommend a proper course booking system. While a single online form that sends email notifications can work when you’re just starting out, it won’t keep up as your course schedule grows.
A dedicated booking solution handles registrations, payments, and all those follow-up communications automatically. In the end, it cuts back on manual admin work so you can spend more time focusing on the quality of your training.
Parts of it.
Some tools do more than just handle scheduling and enrollment. Training management systems oversee every aspect of your operation—powering your existing website, accepting payments, automating follow-ups, providing insights through custom reports, and integrating with your other business applications. With Arlo, you get it all in one powerful platform.
From $25 to over $1,000 per month. Arlo starts at $99 per month plus $2 per registration – view the pricing.
When you use a course booking system like Arlo, several other types of software are sometimes used in conjunction.
Here are some examples:
Training Scheduling Software: This tool helps you maintain an organized, up-to-date calendar for recurring sessions across multiple locations. By integrating it alongside your booking system, you reduce scheduling conflicts and make rescheduling courses more straightforward.
Appointment Scheduling Software: Ideal for providers who offer one-on-one or small-group sessions, appointment scheduling software complements your booking system by providing more detailed and flexible scheduling options that cater to individual learners’ needs.
Training Management Software: An all-in-one platform, training management software supports the planning, delivery, and tracking of every type of training—whether it’s online, in-person, or blended.
Fortunately, Arlo brings together all these features—booking, scheduling, and training management—within a single, comprehensive solution.
A training and course booking system offers numerous benefits that can transform the way training providers operate.
Here are some of the key advantages:

Automates the booking process, reducing administrative tasks and human error
One of the standout features of a training and course booking system is its ability to automate the booking process. This booking and scheduling automation not only saves time but also minimizes the risk of errors that can occur with manual handling.
From initial registration to payment processing and follow-up communications, the system takes care of it all, freeing up valuable time for training providers to focus on more critical tasks.
