14 questions
Installation and operation
Running on your own servers and requirements.
Courwe runs on your own servers. Videos, documents, exam results and certificates stay inside your organization; only an installation identifier reaches us, for license validation.
A Linux server running Docker, a domain name, an SMTP server and outbound HTTPS to the license server. Disk needs depend on the size of your video and document archive. The installation package ships with Docker Compose.
The identity source can be LDAP / Active Directory; local accounts are also supported for organizations without a directory.
Yes. The interface is responsive; learners can open their training in the browser of a phone or tablet. There is no separate mobile app.
License and pricing
Subscription, packages and license validation.
Your subscription is bound by a product key; the application validates daily against the license server. Packages are set by active learner count and listed up to date on the pricing page.
Yes. Courwe works on its own and is licensed separately. Connecting it to the other products is optional.
Content and exams
Supported content, tracking and assessment.
A course can contain video (MP4 / WebM), slides (PPTX, PPT, ODP), documents (PDF, DOCX, XLSX), links, exams and SCORM packages.
Yes. SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 packages are uploaded and played as course items; progress and score are recorded. Single-SCO packages are supported; multi-SCO sequencing is not supported yet.
The player reports the played second ranges to the server; the server merges them and calculates the unique watch rate. The video isn't complete until the rate reaches the threshold (90% by default); skipping to the end doesn't complete it.
An uploaded presentation is converted to images on the server and shown slide by slide in the browser; the file is not sent to any external service. Animations and transitions are not preserved in this conversion.
Single choice, multiple choice, true/false, fill in the blank, matching, ordering, numeric, short answer and manually graded long answer.
Compliance and data protection
Access, records and audit.
Access is role- and scope-based: learners see their own training, managers their team, training managers the whole catalogue and reports, and auditors read-only compliance records.
The compliance matrix, the overdue list and per-person evidence: who completed which course version and when. These records can be exported.
Every certificate has a serial number and a verification link. Whoever opens the link sees whether the certificate is valid, expired or revoked.
