Question 1

Does Odoo have an LMS and what can a course contain?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Odoo eLearning is a learning management system built into the Website app. A course is a sequence of lessons made of video embedded from YouTube or Vimeo or uploaded, PDF documents, web pages with images and text, and quizzes with scores. You can set prerequisites, group lessons into sections, attach a forum for questions, and track every learner's progress, attempts and completion in reports.

Question 2

Can we sell courses and issue certificates?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A paid course is linked to a product, so it is sold through the Odoo store with mada, Apple Pay or card via a local gateway, and each sale creates a ZATCA-compliant e-invoice in Accounting. On completion, Odoo generates a certificate from a template Naqlah designs in Arabic and English, with the learner's name, course title and date, and stores the record on the contact.

Question 3

Do we need an NELC licence to offer online courses in Saudi Arabia?

Accepted Answer

It depends on who the learners are. The National eLearning Center licenses entities that deliver e-learning and e-training programs to the public, and FutureX handles program licence issuance per course. Internal staff training is generally outside that scope, while commercial training sold publicly typically needs TVTC and NELC licensing. Naqlah configures the platform to record what licensing asks for, and recommends confirming your own position with a licensing consultant.

Question 4

Does Odoo eLearning work in Arabic?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Course pages, lesson titles, quiz questions, learner profiles and certificates can be published in Arabic with right-to-left layout, with an English version where you need one. Arabic learner names print correctly on certificates, and dates can be shown in Hijri and Gregorian formats. Naqlah checks the course template and certificate design in both languages before your trainers upload content.

Question 5

Can we track employee training against HR records?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Staff-only courses are linked to employee records, so completion, scores and certificates appear on the employee file and in HR reports. HR can enroll new hires into an onboarding track and see who has finished before a branch opens. Where employee master data lives in Jisr or ZenHR, Naqlah confirms the sync scope so employee lists stay aligned without double entry.

Question 6

Does Odoo eLearning support SCORM content?

Accepted Answer

Not natively. Odoo eLearning uses its own lesson types, so SCORM packages from training vendors cannot be uploaded directly. The usual approach is to rebuild vendor content as video, document and quiz lessons, or to host the SCORM package elsewhere and link it from the course. Naqlah reviews your existing content during scoping and recommends the cleanest route for each course.
