Mark a course Public
Every course has three visibility levels. Public lists it on your site, Unlisted shares it by link only, Private keeps it to enrolled learners.
New Public courses
Your courses, out in the open.
Mark a course Public and it appears on your own branded course site. Customers, partners and candidates browse without an account. The classroom stays yours.

Included in every plan. Your site exists the moment your workspace does.
How it works
From private training to a public shop window, in one switch.
No website builder, no developer, no new login for your visitors.
It appears on your site
Your logo, your colours, your headline, at your own address. Server-rendered so search engines and shared links show the real page.
Visitors browse, then convert
They read the outline and instructor without logging in. One button takes them to sign in or to an enquiry form, and every enquiry becomes a lead you own.
FOR ADMINS
A branded site you never have to build
Turn it on, write a headline, pin a few courses. The rest comes from the branding you already set.

- Featured courses and a catalogPin up to three to “Start here”; the rest is searchable with category filters.
- Preview as a visitorSee exactly what someone without an account sees, on desktop and on a phone, before you publish.

FAQ
Questions about public courses.
Something else? Ask us in the demo.
Can visitors take a course without an account?
They can read the full course page, including every section and lesson title, with no account. Lessons, quizzes and certificates open after they sign in. Free sample lessons and a passwordless email sign-up are next on the roadmap.
Will my private courses leak?
No. Only courses you mark Public or Unlisted are reachable from outside, and only through your own address. A link to a Private or Draft course shows a plain “not found” page, the same page an unknown link shows.
Whose leads are they?
Yours. Enquiries land in your admin with the visitor’s name, work email, the course they asked about and the consent they gave. Each lead can be deleted, and Professional plans can export them.
Can I use my own domain?
Every workspace gets yourcompany.lmsht.com from day one. Custom domains such as learn.yourcompany.com are on the roadmap as a paid add-on.
Is it in every plan?
Yes. Starter includes a limited number of public courses with a “Powered by LMSht” footer. Professional and Enterprise remove the footer and add lead export and the full visitor dashboard.
