FlexTraining
Universal learning platform for creating, delivering, tracking, and certifying online training
About FlexTraining
FlexTraining is a hosted learning platform from National Training Systems that combines course authoring, learner portals, testing, certificates, and reporting in one system. Built-in AI tools generate course ideas, course frameworks, lesson content, images, narrations, and test questions, while the vendor's creative services team can build custom courses for organizations that want them done for them.
