For your convenience, we have created a feature that allows you to duplicate any of your content in a matter of clicks and synchronize content across all copies.
This means that you won't have to manually edit dozens of lessons every time you make changes. Use this feature when copying content, and any future changes you make to the original lesson will be synchronized to all copies of it.

AcademyOcean has a unique feature that isn't available in Northpass LMS
Content synchronization module
With the help of predefined variables (city, role, and more), you can set up your academy so that two different students will see the same lesson differently.
This could mean they see different photos, images, presentations, audio, or even whole paragraphs of text.
For example, support staff will see instructions related to their job and a training video about customer support, while sales staff will see their own instructions and videos on how to improve sales. All other course content will be the same.
