Free WordPress LMS plugin. Create and sell online courses with an AI course builder, quizzes, certificates and multi-instructor revenue sharing.

== Description ==

= Free WordPress LMS plugin to create, sell and manage online courses =

**Academy LMS** is a lightweight, self-hosted **learning management system (LMS) for WordPress**, rated 4.9★ by its users. Build a full eLearning site with an AI course builder, a frontend course builder, quizzes, certificates, student and instructor dashboards, and built-in course selling. You don't need to write any code.

Many other WordPress LMS plugins charge for the features course creators need first. Academy LMS includes these in the free version:

* **AI Studio.** Generate course outlines, lessons, quizzes and images from a text prompt.
* **Frontend course builder.** Instructors can build courses without opening wp-admin.
* **Quiz builder and completion certificates.**
* **Multi-instructor revenue sharing.** Instructors can request withdrawals from the frontend.
* **Sell courses** with [StoreEngine](https://wordpress.org/plugins/storeengine/), [WooCommerce](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/) or [Easy Digital Downloads](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-digital-downloads/), plus [SureCart](https://wordpress.org/plugins/surecart/) in Pro.
* **Redesigned admin, in light or dark.** A full Tailwind CSS redesign of every admin screen, with a one-click Light/Dark toggle, global ⌘K search, and guided "Guide me" tours — still a fast single-page app that loads instantly and adds little weight to your site.

You own your platform, your students and your revenue. There are no SaaS subscriptions and no per-sale platform fees.
