A clear process from first call to launch
Every Tutor LMS project follows the same steps, so you always know what is happening, what comes next and what you need to decide.
- Written scope before work starts
- Staging reviews at every milestone
- End-to-end testing before launch
Why the process matters on an LMS
A broken brochure site loses a few visitors. A broken LMS locks paying students out of their courses, loses quiz results or sends the wrong certificate. That is why our process puts staging, testing and rollback plans before speed. It is also why the audit comes first on existing sites: we need to know which version of Tutor LMS and Pro you run, how courses are sold, which templates are overridden and which plugins hook into enrollment before we change anything.
How we test a Tutor LMS site
Every launch is checked against the flows your students and instructors use: registration and login, buying a course with each active payment method, enrollment and the student dashboard, lesson completion and progress, quiz attempts and grading, assignments, certificates, emails and the instructor dashboard, on desktop and mobile. You get the checklist with the results.

How a Tutor LMS project runs

For existing sites: theme, plugins, versions, customizations, data and performance. For new ones: requirements and user flows.
- 3
Scope and proposal
Milestones, deliverables, price, timeline and acceptance criteria in writing.
- 4
Design and build
Designs for approval, then development on staging with progress you can review.
- 5
Testing and launch
Enrollment, payments, quizzes, certificates, emails and mobile tested end to end, then a planned go-live.
- 6
Support and growth
Maintenance, monitoring and improvements, or a documented handover.
