FAQs
Q. How does this link to our website?
Your courses will be published to your own branded Aptem Commercial homepage, which you can link to via your website.
Q. Can you specify course intake sizes?
You can set course capacity for each intake before publishing your listing. Aptem Commercial will only accept bookings up to this limit, removing the need to manually manage capacity.
Q. Can a site be created for a specific employer?
Course catalogues can be created for each of your employers. You can co-brand these catalogues or use your employer’s branding. You can even specify bespoke pricing and select specific courses you’d like to feature for each employer, so learners only see the courses their employer wants to offer.
Q. Can we use our own branding?
There are lots of opportunities to make your course homepages your own. You can change the text, images, logo and favicon to achieve your desired branding.
Q. How is payment managed?
Aptem Commercial uses Stripe’s secure payment platform. As all payment details are captured via Stripe, they will not be stored within Aptem Commercial itself. You will create a connected account in Stripe, through which you will see all transactions made via Aptem Commercial.
