Showcase training offerings
Experience flexibility like never before with CYPHER's versatile display options for your training offerings: the graphical catalog or a convenient calendar format.
Elevate your courses with our comprehensive catalog, each course featuring an in-depth overview tab. Customize the catalog by structuring categories and courses to your preference – whether flat, hierarchical, or graphical. Tailor further by arranging them alphabetically or in a custom order. You have the option to display concise descriptions on item tiles, reveal sections within modules, and even showcase prices. Organize efficiently and indicate time zones for a seamless browsing experience.
Effortlessly track and display learning sessions and events with our intuitive calendar view. Instantly check whether a course is full or open for enrollment whether you’re enrolled, waitlisted, or add color-coded locations of courses like London or Sydney. Learners can easily filter searches by category, keywords, course style, color codes, language, and location. Seamlessly switch between weekly, yearly, or agenda views, to easily view specific events like web conferences and assignment deadlines.
Personalized dashboards
Every user sees exactly what they need. Learners focus on upcoming training, managers monitor team progress, instructors guide learners, and administrators gain instant visibility into organizational performance through configurable dashboards and report widgets.
Widgets surface the information users need most, reducing clicks and helping learners, instructors, and administrators take action faster. The home dashboard features three primary sections: banner widget, courses widget, and custom report widget.
Our visual activity display, the Green Dot, enhances interactivity by showcasing real-time user activity updates across courses, paths, and groups, fostering a stronger sense of community engagement for users.

CYPHER offers robust customization for learners, administrators, and instructors including personalized dashboards, recommendations, learning paths, 50+ language options, notifications, and content visibility based on each user's role, progress, goals, and preferences.
