Everything you need to build and deliver.

Course-linked delivery
Link online lessons to the relevant RTObase course so learner progress and assessment submissions stay with the enrolment.

Arrange the course outline and map requirements to lesson pages, questions, assessment criteria and delivery activities. Review coverage before publication. Add content to a live course while keeping existing learner records.
Qualification unit courses
Arrange unit courses in delivery order and follow each learner through them, with one qualification enrolment carrying fees, results and completion.
Shared course resources
Give eligible learners files and links with descriptions in the portal. Resources follow the course access rules.
Archive, restore and reuse
Archive lessons to tidy the Learning library while courses already using them keep access. Restore them when needed, or safely delete unused drafts without removing learner history.
AI content generation
Generate topic content from a prompt, then review and refine. AI drafts; you keep creative control.
30 widget types
Banners, stats, quotes, FAQs, galleries, video embeds, CTAs and more, each with layout variants for polished topics.
Interactive exercises
Knowledge checks, matching, ordering, scales and scenario activities embedded right into topics and assessments.
Reusable question banks
Build knowledge questions with short and long text, single and multi choice, matching, ordering, true/false, tables, scales and fill-in-the-blank (cloze).
Progression modes
Sequential progression where topics unlock in order, or open mode where students navigate freely. Assessments gate progress.
Portal delivery
Courses are delivered through the RTObase student portal, no third-party LMS, no extra login.
Progress tracking
Track progress through modules, topics and assessments, and spot students who need support early.
Variations: revision & translation
Generate alternative versions of any widget, revise with custom instructions, or translate a topic.
SCORM inside lessons
Add SCORM 1.2 packages alongside native content and assessments. Published lessons pin the package version, with learner status, score and resume data returned to RTObase.
One learner record
Lesson progress and assessment submissions stay linked to the enrolment, alongside the rest of the learner’s delivery and completion workflow.
How it works
From first topic to published lesson in four steps.
01
Create your lesson
Set up modules and topics, then link the online lesson to the course it supports. Build a clear structure before adding content.
02
Build with widgets
Use the drag-and-drop editor to add text, images, video, downloads and interactive exercises to each topic.
03
Generate with AI
Let AI draft topic content from your prompt. Review, refine and customise it to match your training approach.
04
Publish & deliver
Publish, and students access the course through the RTObase portal. Track progress and completion in real time.
SCORM 1.2, built into lessons
Bring your existing SCORM content into the learner journey.
Add a SCORM 1.2 package directly to an online lesson. RTObase pins the exact package version when the lesson is published, so learners stay on the content they started while status, score and resume data flow back to the enrolment record.

Admin Agent
AI doesn’t stop at content.
Once your courses are live, the AI Admin Agent helps you run the back office by chat. Ask it to look up your org’s data, or to draft routine create and update actions, a new student, course, unit, location or class. Every change is shown as an approval card before it writes, under your own login, permissions and audit trail. Included on every plan.

Online Lessons FAQs
Common questions about building and delivering online courses in RTObase.
No. Courses built in RTObase are delivered straight through your own student portal, the same login students use for enrolment, payments and certificates. No third-party LMS, no extra subscription, no data syncing.
Yes. Unlimited courses, AI content generation and online delivery are included on all plans, the builder and its AI are never gated behind a tier. Business is a flat monthly fee with no per-enrolment fees, and adds SMS and hands-on migration support.
Yes. Add existing SCORM 1.2 packages directly to online lessons. Each published lesson pins an exact package version, so learners continue with the content version they started. Status, score and resume data are saved with the enrolment record.
AI drafts lesson content from your instructions and the context you provide. You review, refine, regenerate sections, or translate. It speeds up the heavy lifting while you keep full editorial control; nothing is published without your sign-off.
Add assessments with reusable questions for short and long text, single and multi choice, matching, ordering, true/false, tables, scales and fill-in-the-blank (cloze). Formal Assessment Tasks use dedicated widgets to collect supporting evidence and signed declarations. Assessments can gate progression, and submissions flow to your trainers for marking with a gradebook.
Link each online lesson to the relevant course in RTObase. Learner progress and assessment evidence stay with the enrolment record, while units, outcomes and completion continue through your normal course workflow.

Yes. Use the same online lesson builder for accredited and non-accredited delivery. Lesson progress and assessment evidence stay connected to the enrolment, while competency decisions and completion documents continue through the normal course completion workflow.
Yes, the AI Admin Agent works inside the back office on your own data. Ask it in plain English to look things up, or to draft routine create and update actions such as a new student, course, unit, location or class, a student update, or a logged complaint.
