Pricing
The online training system that easily pays for itself !
Our major clients have seen a positive Return on Investment (ROI) within a matter of months.
We’d like to see if we could do the same with you
We have outlined some indicative pricing below, but in our experience each client is different. For example, it is unlikely you will need all the add-on elements. So please take a look, then why not contact us for a no-obligation chat?
Pricing
There are 3 main elements to setting up and running the portal:
- Set up and standard customisation of the portal – £450
- Add-ons, eg ecommerce, visual editor and custom reporting – from £40 each
- Hosting, SSL certificate and maintenance – from £10 per month
All prices are subject to VAT at the prevailing rate
The overall budget to put a Training Portal in place depends on your individual requirements.
We have helped clients put together training courses and solutions from under £1,000.
For larger clients we have managed projects that run to over £20,000 but still delivered huge positive Returns on Investment (ROI).
The costs largely depend on the amount of time and assistance we provide in developing and editing content, creating custom styling and doing bespoke programming.
Remember, whatever the costs, our clients are seeing rewarding positive returns on their investment.

Develop course material
Once the portal set up is complete, the next element is to develop the course material. This comprises of putting in the learning resources, together with any self check exercises, followed by a test / quiz to actively score your trainees or learners understanding of the course.
- Develop course material and learning modules
- Create the test or quiz to measure individual understanding
- Set pass mark and compile a correct answer sheet for future reference
As outlined below, the most popular option tends to be for clients to initially input the content, then work collaboratively with our team to style the layout and graphics. Others send content in PowerPoint or PDF format for us to input as lessons and tests
You Do It
You create and edit your own material in-house using the Easy2 online editor.
We Collaborate
We provide additional resource or particular skills to help you create your course, on time, efficiently and effectively.
We Do It
You provide us with your training material (eg as PowerPoint) and we’ll do the rest.
The costs for course development varies with the amount of work required.
We can discuss your requirements with you and set the budget before work commences.
