The solution journey

From course setup to completion

How a university program runs in Sublime LMS, using the workflows the product has today.

  1. 01 · Build

    Create courses

    Administrators create courses; modules and lessons are authored in the course editor, with optional approval before changes go live.

  2. 02 · Staff

    Assign faculty

    Instructors are assigned to the courses they teach and see only those in their workspace.

  3. 03 · Enroll

    Bring in students

    Students are invited and enrolled by email, from a list or by CSV — or join a scheduled cohort.

  4. 04 · Learn

    Work through the course

    Students follow modules in the course player, take quizzes and hand in assignments.

  5. 05 · Assess

    Review and give feedback

    Faculty grade submissions and release feedback, or return work for revision; progress is tracked per student.

  6. 06 · Complete

    Finish and certify

    Completion is recorded, and courses that grant certificates issue one students can download and verify.

Student experience. Students land on a dashboard that leads with their next best action, then deadlines, their courses in focus and recent updates.

NeedDeliver courses students can follow

Structured courses, built and kept current

Courses are modules of lessons. Faculty and administrators author them in the course editor; students see them in order in the course player.

  • Six lesson types — readings, videos with transcripts, files, quizzes, assignments and discussions.
  • Safe updates — edits to a published lesson stay in draft until someone publishes the update.
  • Optional approval — where your institution requires it, changes to a live course wait for review.

Outcome: students always see a finished, ordered course; faculty can improve it without disrupting the term.

NeedAssess work and return feedback

Assessment with feedback students can act on

Quizzes check understanding with clear rules; assignments get a score and written feedback from faculty.

  • Quizzes with pass marks, attempt limits and retakes where the course allows them.
  • Assignments handed in as text, a file or a link, with due dates and late submissions marked.
  • Grade and release — or return for revision so the student can submit a better attempt.

Outcome: students get feedback where they learn, and faculty work through submissions in one queue.

NeedKeep faculty focused on their own courses

A workspace for faculty, not the whole institution

Instructors work only in the courses they're assigned, with the context they need about their own students.

  • Their students, their courses — search and filter by course, status or progress.
  • One student in detail — progress, quiz results, video analytics and recent activity.
  • Submission notifications with a shortcut to review.

Outcome: faculty see who is on track or at risk in their classes without access to institution-wide settings.

NeedSee progress across programs

Program oversight for administrators

Program administrators see every course and learner in one console.

  • Dashboard — registered learners, active courses, average completion and certificates issued.
  • Learner list across every course, with status, progress, certificate and export.
  • Reports — learner progress, course completion and inactive learners, on Sublime Live.
  • Cohorts for intakes — run a program as scheduled cohorts with their own dates and roster.

Outcome: one view of how every course and student is progressing, without collecting spreadsheets from each department.

Every learner, every course

Search, filter by course, status, certificate or progress, invite learners and export the list.

Intakes as cohorts

One program, many scheduled runs — each cohort with its own dates, seats and roster.

Who does what

Three experiences, clearly separated

  • Students

    Follow their courses, take quizzes, hand in assignments, read feedback, see their progress and deadlines, and keep their certificates.

  • Faculty & instructors

    Work in the courses they're assigned: edit content, add students, review and grade, and follow each student's progress. No institution-wide settings.

  • Program administrators

    Create courses and programs, assign instructors, invite students, set approval and certificate rules, run cohorts and see every learner's progress.

The instructor role and workspace, analytics and exportable reports are part of Sublime Live.

Use cases

Where universities use Sublime LMS

Why it helps

Clearer for students, simpler for staff

  • A clear path for students

    Every course in order, the next step first, and feedback where they learn.

  • The right access for each role

    Faculty see their courses; administrators see the program; students see their own work.

  • Progress in one place

    Completion, status and certificates across courses without assembling them by hand.

Today students sign in with Sublime LMS accounts. SSO and LTI 1.3 are on the Enterprise roadmap and not yet available, and there is no student-information-system integration.
