"Learn new skills or perish", that is the call echoing across boardrooms today. The cloud era rewired how we built, delivered, and consumed software sparking one of the largest learning and unlearning cycles in modern business history. Now, AI is accelerating that shift, reshaping not only how software is created, but how value itself is distributed. Building technology has never been easier. Distributing it has never been harder. And that’s where most product companies struggle today, not in product development but in scaling capability across their partner ecosystems. To win in the AI economy, it’s not enough to co-sell with partners. You must co-learn with them.

Introducing the Channlworks LMS

Train Your Partners. Scale Your Ecosystem.

We are excited to launch the Channlworks Learning Management System (LMS), a platform purpose-built for vendors who want to create end-to-end skills, enablement and competency programs for their partner networks. With this launch, we complete the enablement loop:

Learning Delivery → Assessments → Certifications → Skills → Credentials → Program Design

Because in the AI economy, the best-enabled ecosystem wins.

Why LMS for Alliances Matters

Partner networks are no longer just channels of distribution, they are extensions of your product, your brand, and your customer experience. But partners can only create value when they are enabled with the right skills. The Channlworks LMS empowers vendors to:

  • Build structured enablement journeys
  • Measure partner readiness and capability
  • Issue verifiable, shareable certifications
  • Align skills development with partner tiers, incentives & performance

And partners gain:

  • One unified learning experience
  • Clear skill pathways and certification visibility
  • Proof of competence to help win and retain customers

Capability becomes your ecosystem’s competitive advantage.

The Learning Flow

A simple, clean, scalable enablement lifecycle:

Courses → Assessments → Attempts → Certifications → Credentials → Programs

Each step is tracked, measured and tied back to partner performance and outcomes.

Core Modules

1️⃣ Course Management

Create and manage structured courses under defined certifications. Link content from your sales or technical libraries and control the lifecycle from draft → published → archived.

  • Host or embed learning content
  • Manage metadata and access
  • Sync courses to certification pathways

2️⃣ Assessment Management

Design assessments that validate real expertise — not just attendance.

  • Add passing criteria, cooldown periods, and validity windows
  • Enable / disable assessments at the course level
  • Support flexible certification program designs

3️⃣ Attempt & Review Management

Track every attempt with real-time scoring and result logs.

  • Auto-score assessments
  • Track partner learning history
  • Apply time-based retakes or attempt limits

4️⃣ Certification Management

Automatically issue branded, verifiable certifications when criteria are met.

  • Unique credential IDs
  • Integrates with the User Credentials Hub
  • Sync certifications with partner programs and tiers

Partners can showcase achievements. Vendors can measure enablement impact.

Simple. Connected. Scalable.

The Channlworks LMS is deeply integrated with the rest of the Channlworks ecosystem:

  • Partner Tiering & Program Management
  • Credential Verification
  • Ecosystem Reporting & Analytics

This makes learning not just a function but a strategic growth lever.

The Future of Partner Enablement

In a world where products can be copied, pricing can be matched and features can be replicated capability becomes the real moat. You don’t scale through partners. You scale with partners. And that begins with learning.

Ready to Strengthen Your Ecosystem?

Let’s enable your partners to sell better, deliver faster and grow with you.
