Personalizing your e-learning environment, that is, your academy is very important. It ensures a consistent appearance of all the classes and courses in your academy, along with a superior learner engagement and enhanced retention of information available in your academy.
You can personalize your academy by applying the branding and theming of your institute or organization. Branding establishes your corporate identity and renders a consistent look and feel to your academy. From showcasing the vision or values of your academy to engaging all the visitors and prospective learners from the outset, branding helps you position yourself the way you might expect to be viewed by your learners. While theming enables you to apply the same colors to the layout of all your courses or classes, all the UI controls, such as buttons, hyperlinks, and user input fields, among others.
To this end, WizIQ offers you several options to personalize your academy as per your needs and preferences.
