Course and Class Registration Software for Training Providers: 7 Systems Compared (2026)

The best course and class registration software for a professional training provider depends on what you teach and how much work sits around each registration. For CPR and first aid training centers, Enrollware is built around AHA, Red Cross and HSI certification. Continuing education and professional development programs that want unlimited registrations for one annual fee look at GoSignMeUp or its sister product Learning Stream. CourseStorm is built for community and arts education programs, low-volume classes and workshops can pay per use with Corsizio, and Regpack suits programs that need flexible forms and payment plans. Training businesses that also need a CRM, invoices for employers, trainer scheduling and online learning look at training management systems such as Arlo and Cademy.

Cademy is our product. Every system below, Cademy included, is described from what its vendor publishes and what its customers write on review sites, checked on November 10, 2026, with the same headings for each.

Key takeaways

• Search results for class registration software mix three markets: recreation and studio tools, university registration systems, and software for professional training. Only the last is covered here.
• The pricing models differ more than the features. Some charge per registration (Arlo, CourseStorm, Corsizio), some by monthly volume tier (Enrollware), and some a flat subscription with unlimited registrations (GoSignMeUp, Learning Stream, Cademy’s paid plans).
• At 2,000 paid registrations a year, registration fees alone come to $4,980 on CourseStorm, $4,300 on Arlo and about $2,300 on Corsizio, before any subscription. The calculator below gives each system’s first-year total at your own volume.
• For continuing education, check how each system records credit hours, issues certificates and handles one employer paying for several staff.
• Ratings are high across the list. Enrollware has the largest review base by far: 4.6 from 748 reviews.
• Registration software is enough when taking the booking is the job. Once you also invoice employers, schedule trainers, issue certificates and sell online courses, a training management system keeps all of it on one record.

Registration software for professional training

Search for “class registration software” and the results come from three different markets:

Market	Examples in the results	Who it is for
Recreation, camps and studios	Jumbula, ActiveNet, iClassPro, ClassDuo	Kids’ activities, sports, arts studios, family accounts
Academic registration	Coursedog, CourseLeaf, Stellic	Colleges registering students for credit courses
Professional training	Enrollware, GoSignMeUp, Learning Stream, CourseStorm, Corsizio, Regpack, Arlo	Training centers, continuing education, professional development

Professional training, the third, needs more than a sign-up form:

• Group registration. One employer books and pays for several staff, often on invoice with a purchase order number, and names the attendees later.
• Credit and certificates. Continuing education hours, CEUs or certification cards recorded against each learner and printed on the certificate.
• Attendance. A roster for each session and a record of who completed, for the learner’s board, employer or accreditor.
• Payments. Card checkout, invoices, payment plans and refunds.
• Reminders and changes. Automatic reminders, waitlists, transfers between dates and cancellations.

Event tools such as Eventbrite and Cvent take registrations too, but stop at the ticket. Course booking software for training providers compares those and the UK-based options.

Seven systems compared

System	Built for	Published price (USD)	Fee on each registration	Rating (reviews)
Arlo	Training businesses with public and private courses	From $121 per admin license a month, billed annually	$2.15 per paid, $1.07 per free (annual billing)	4.6 (271)
Cademy	Training providers with a team, employer clients and online courses	Pro $129 a month and Teams $649 a month, billed yearly; free plan	None on paid plans (yearly registration allowance)	4.8 (91)
CourseStorm	Community, arts and adult education programs	$99 to $399+ a month, billed yearly	$2.49	4.5 (39)
Corsizio	Low-volume classes, courses and workshops	No subscription	Free under 30 a month, then $0.15 each, plus $1 per online payment	4.9 (228)
Enrollware	CPR and first aid training centers and instructors	$119 to $449 a month by monthly registrations	None (priced by volume tier)	4.6 (748)
GoSignMeUp and Learning Stream	Continuing education, professional development, public-sector training	From $583 a month (GoSignMeUp) or $7,000 a year (Learning Stream)	None (unlimited registrations)	4.3 (37) and 4.6 (106)
Regpack	Camps, classes and programs with complex forms	Quote	Quote; payment processing from 1.5%	4.3 (455)

Ratings are the review-weighted average of each vendor’s Capterra, G2 and Trustpilot scores on November 10, 2026, where it has reviews on them. Counts are review entries rather than customers, and vendors, us included, invite customers to write them, so check the dates on each profile too. Card processing fees are extra on every system.

The systems in detail

Listed alphabetically.

Arlo

A training management system founded in New Zealand and sold worldwide, priced in USD among five other currencies. Registration sits inside a wider system: course scheduling, CRM, email automation, a website and checkout, reporting, and on higher plans portals for customers and client organizations.

Price. Per administrator license: Simple $121, Professional $207 and Enterprise $278 a month billed annually ($132, $227 and $302 monthly), with a lower price per license as you add them. Every registration adds a fee: $2.15 paid and $1.07 free on annual billing ($2.39 and $1.19 monthly). E-learning authoring and SCORM hosting are add-ons from $99 a month, automated certificates are on Enterprise, and an implementation package from $695 is required.

Reviews. 4.6 from 271 (Capterra 4.7 from 147, G2 4.5 from 108, Trustpilot 4.2 from 16). Support and having everything in one place are praised; website and checkout customization are the common complaint.

Choose it if you sell public and private courses to individuals and organizations, with one or two administrators and moderate volume. Look elsewhere if volume is high enough that the per-registration fee becomes the largest line on the bill. Arlo alternatives compares the options in more depth.

Cademy

Our product: a training platform built in the UK, with customers in the UK, US, Canada, EU, UAE, Australia and New Zealand. It handles course registrations and bookings alongside a course builder and LMS, a training CRM, scheduling, registers and certificates, and payments and invoicing. For continuing education, certificates issue automatically when a learner is marked attended or completes, with CPD points or hours on them under a unit name you can change to match the profession, and an employer can pay by invoice with a PO number while the person who booked adds or changes the attendees later.

Price. Published in USD, GBP and EUR. Teams is $649 a month billed yearly or $779 monthly, with five admins, 50 facilitators, 5,000 registrations a year and 100 published courses, plus SCORM, Xero, tax profiles with a rate and label for each country you sell in, API access and scheduled exports. Pro is $129 a month billed yearly ($149 monthly) with one admin and 1,000 registrations a year. A free plan charges 5% on paid bookings; paid plans have no per-registration fee and no implementation fee.

Reviews. 4.8 from 91 (Trustpilot 4.8 from 67, Capterra 4.9 from 19, G2 5.0 from 5). Support scores highest on every site.

Choose it if you have several admins, sell to employers who pay on invoice, run online or blended courses alongside live ones, or sell in more than one country. Look elsewhere if you run AHA or Red Cross courses and want certification-card integration built in, which is Enrollware’s specialty, or take only a handful of registrations a month, where Corsizio’s pay-per-use costs less.

CourseStorm

Class registration software for community, arts and adult education programs in the US; the vendor says more than 550 organizations use it for classes and camps. It gives each program a catalog website, a WordPress plugin and widget, rosters, waitlists and transfers, with reminders, marketing emails and payment plans on higher plans.

Price. Four plans billed yearly: Starter $99, Core $169, Pro $269 and All Access from $399 a month ($119, $219, $329 and $499 billed monthly). A $2.49 fee applies to every registration on every plan, on top of Stripe card processing. Its FAQ recommends a plan above Starter once a program takes $25,000 a year.

Reviews. 4.5 from 39 (Capterra 4.5 from 35, G2 4.8 from 4).

Choose it if you run a community or arts education program and want a catalog and checkout that are simple for learners and part-time instructors. Look elsewhere if most of your buyers are employers booking groups of staff on invoice; ask to see that flow in a demo before you commit.

Corsizio

Self-serve registration and payment software for classes, courses, workshops and events, in person or online. Every account has every feature, and there is no subscription.

Price. Pay per use, with no subscription. Registrations are free in any month with fewer than 30; above that, every registration that month is $0.15. Each online card payment adds a $1 fee plus Stripe’s processing fee, deducted from the payment.

Reviews. 4.9 from 228 (Capterra 4.9 from 227, G2 4.5 from 1).

Choose it if you run a modest number of classes or workshops and want registration and payment with no monthly commitment. Look elsewhere if registration is only part of the job and you want trainers, employer accounts and certificates run in the same system.

Enrollware

Class management software for CPR and first aid training centers and independent instructors, calling itself the “#1 Rated CPR Class Management Software”. It covers class scheduling, registration, payments and instructor tracking, with eCard and certification integration for the American Heart Association, the Red Cross and HSI, and features for AHA training centers.

Price. Monthly, by registrations: $119 for up to 100 a month, $179 for 101 to 200, $299 for more than 200, and Premium at $449 with unlimited registrations. A setup fee of $119 ($449 on Premium) is shown as waived on the pricing page.

Reviews. 4.6 from 748 on Capterra, the largest review base on this list by a distance; no G2 or Trustpilot profile found.

Choose it if you teach AHA, Red Cross or HSI courses: the certification integration is the reason it is the default in that sector. Look elsewhere if your courses are outside life-support and first aid training, where those integrations add nothing.

GoSignMeUp and Learning Stream

Two registration brands in the same group of companies, now part of the SignUpGenius family and run as separate products. GoSignMeUp serves K-12 schools, first responders, nonprofits and training companies running continuing education, professional development and employee training. Learning Stream adds modules such as a student portal, a Canvas integration, evaluations, test management and learning plans.

Price. Both are annual subscriptions with unlimited registrations. GoSignMeUp starts at $583 a month, including one system administrator, Stripe integration, and onboarding and initial training, with more options at extra cost. Learning Stream’s subscriptions start at $7,000 a year.

Reviews. GoSignMeUp 4.3 from 37 (Capterra 4.3 from 35, G2 4.5 from 2). Learning Stream 4.6 from 106 (Capterra 4.6 from 104, G2 3.3 from 2).

Choose it if you run a continuing education or professional development program with high volume, often in the public sector or education, and want one predictable annual fee. Look elsewhere if your registration volume is low, where a $7,000 starting point costs more than the per-use options.

Regpack

Registration and payment software for camps, classes and programs, built around custom forms, custom fields and triggers, a payment dashboard and installment plans. Every plan includes unlimited projects, users, reports, emails and forms.

Price. By quote, with plans chosen by need rather than usage. Payment processing starts from 1.5%.

Reviews. 4.3 from 455 (Capterra 4.4 from 373, G2 3.9 from 76, Trustpilot 2.7 from 6).

Choose it if your registration needs complex forms, eligibility questions or installment plans more than training operations. Look elsewhere if you want a published price before the first call.

How the registration fees add up

Fees per registration look small next to a course price, and they grow with every seat sold. Here is the fee part alone, for a provider taking 2,000 paid registrations a year:

System	How it charges for registrations	Fee for 2,000 a year
CourseStorm	$2.49 per registration	$4,980
Arlo	$2.15 per paid registration, billed annually	$4,300
Corsizio	$0.15 per registration, plus $1 per online payment	about $2,300
Enrollware	Volume tier, no per-registration fee (about 167 a month is the $179 tier)	$0
GoSignMeUp and Learning Stream	Unlimited in the subscription	$0
Cademy	None on paid plans; Teams includes 5,000 a year	$0
Regpack	By quote	Ask

The subscriptions sit on top, and card processing on top of that. The Corsizio figure assumes one online payment per registration; a group paid in one transaction pays the $1 once.

To see the whole first-year bill at your own volume, put your numbers in below. It picks the cheapest published plan that fits each system: for CourseStorm, Starter below $25,000 a year in registrations and Core above, as its own FAQ recommends; for Cademy, the free plan or Pro with one admin and up to 1,000 registrations, and Teams above that.

The totals do not buy the same thing: Arlo and Cademy include a CRM, scheduling and certificates, Enrollware is built around CPR certification, and Corsizio is registration and payment only. What training management software costs works through whole-system costs over three years.

When registration software is not enough

Registration software takes the booking, the payment and the roster. For many training providers that is only the start of the work on each registration: the employer wants an invoice with their PO number, the trainer needs to know who is coming, the certificate has to go out with the right hours, and next year the same employer books again and expects you to know them. With registration software alone, each of those jobs lives somewhere else, and someone copies the data between them.

A training management system (TMS) runs those jobs from the same record as the registration:

The job	With registration software	With a training management system
Taking the booking and payment	Yes	Yes
Invoicing an employer for several staff, with a PO number	Often a separate accounting or invoicing step	On the same order as the registration
Scheduling trainers and venues	A calendar or spreadsheet alongside	Assigned to each date, with their own view
Certificates with credit hours	A separate tool, or by hand	Issued from the register and the course record
Corporate clients and repeat business	A CRM or spreadsheet alongside	Contacts and organizations linked to every booking
Online and blended courses	A separate LMS	Lessons in the same course, where the system includes an LMS
Reporting across courses, trainers and clients	Exports stitched together	From one set of records

The trade-off is price and setup. A TMS costs more than a simple registration tool, and some need an implementation project before the first booking. It earns that back when the admin around each registration costs more than the software does. The best training management software compares seven systems built for training providers on published prices and reviews, and what is a training management system explains the category in more detail.

What to check for continuing education

How credit is recorded. Ask whether the system stores credit hours or CEUs per course and per learner, prints them on the certificate, and exports them for an accrediting body. CPD accreditation for training providers covers what accreditors and professions ask for, including IACET’s CEU.

Certificates. Check whether certificates issue automatically on attendance or completion, or have to be sent by hand, and whether each has a unique reference a learner can show an employer or board.

Employer bookings. Ask to see one employer booking three staff, paying on invoice with a PO number, and naming the attendees a week later.

Attendance evidence. A signed or marked roster per session, kept with the registration, is what an audit asks for.

Live online sessions. Check that the joining link reaches each registrant automatically and that time zones are right in every reminder. Live online training has the checklist.

Questions to ask in a demo

• What does the published price include, and what is extra: certificates, payment plans, an API, more administrators?
• How are free registrations, cancellations, transfers and group bookings counted toward fees or plan limits?
• Can an employer pay on invoice with a PO number, and who names the attendees?
• Where do credit hours appear, and can we export them per learner?
• How do we import our current registrations and learners, and who does it?
• How long is the contract, and how do we export our data if we leave?

Frequently asked questions

What is course registration software? Software that publishes courses with their dates, takes registrations and payments online, and keeps the roster for each session. For training providers it usually also sends reminders, handles waitlists and transfers, and issues certificates.

What is the best class registration software for CPR training? Enrollware is built for it, with eCard and certification integration for the American Heart Association, the Red Cross and HSI, and features for AHA training centers.

Which course registration software has no per-registration fee? Enrollware prices by monthly volume tier, GoSignMeUp and Learning Stream include unlimited registrations in an annual subscription, and Cademy charges no per-registration fee on its paid plans. Arlo, CourseStorm and Corsizio charge per registration.

Is there free course registration software? Corsizio charges nothing in a month with fewer than 30 registrations, plus a fee on each online payment. Cademy’s free plan charges 5% of each paid booking, and card processing is extra on both.

What is the difference between course registration software and a training management system? Registration software takes the booking and payment and keeps the roster. A training management system adds the work around it: trainers and venues, employer invoicing, certificates, a CRM and reporting. What is a training management system explains the difference.

How much does course registration software cost? From nothing at low volume (Corsizio) to about $100 to $650 a month for most subscriptions here, and from $7,000 a year for unlimited-registration plans built for larger continuing education programs. Per-registration fees and card processing come on top where they apply.
