⚡ Online Course Platforms in the United States

Online course platforms are software systems that enable the creation, delivery, and management of educational content online. They generally fall into two classes: marketplace platforms, which aggregate courses from many instructors and provide access to a built-in audience, and cloud-based platforms, which permit creators to host courses using their own branding and custom domains.
