Six live hours, in a group of only 10 people, with the person who designed and leads the development of Chamilo LMS. Three sessions to discover first-hand everything that is new in Chamilo 3, from the features of the new version through to installation and configuration step by step, always with the platform running in front of you.
A live course built for people who administer e-learning platforms. You will leave knowing what you can do now that you could not do in Chamilo 1.11, and you can ask him directly about your own case.
(*) Start time in each zone; each session runs two hours. The main reference is Brussels time: 4:00 – 6:00 PM (CET, UTC+1). All conversions are already in standard time and are identical across the three dates. The full table is further down.
(**) Early-bird deadline: October 31, 2026. From November 1, the rate is USD 349.

Creator of Chamilo LMS and CTO of BeezNest, with more than 22 years building open source e-learning platforms. He designed the architecture of Chamilo 3 and leads its development.
What you will learn in this Chamilo 3 online course
Chamilo 3 brings dozens of improvements over the version you run today. These six hours of online training are not a replacement for a full Chamilo LMS course: they are a guided tour of what has actually changed, plus a hands-on session on installation and configuration, all shown live by the person who built the platform.
Among other new features, you will see
- Built-in AI assistants: question and lesson generation, pre-grading of open answers and assignments, and more
- The new design and navigation, built-in branding, and how documents and resources now work
- Native two-factor authentication and single sign-on with Entra ID, user provisioning through SCIM, LDAP synchronization, multiple authentication sources, password policies and API Platform
- The new roles and permissions system, and role-based administration menus
- Security and the web-based update system, to keep the platform current without going through the console
- Repeating sessions, bulk multi-URL management and document templates
Who is this Chamilo 3 online course for?
It is built first and foremost for people who administer e-learning platforms:
- Virtual campus administrators who configure the portal, manage users and sessions, pull reports and look after platform security
- Integrators, consultants and technical leads who install, maintain or provide services on Chamilo and need to get ahead of the market
- Teams evaluating Chamilo 3 for their institution who want to see first-hand what it offers and what it takes to run it
Also welcome
- Training, L&D and HR leads at companies that use Chamilo for internal training: onboarding, career paths, compliance training and tracking
- E-learning project managers who will have to plan and budget the version change
- Instructors, trainers and anyone interested in getting to know Chamilo 3
In those cases, bear in mind that some topics are technical, especially in the third session. No prior experience with Chamilo is required, but you do need an interest in how the platform works beyond the day-to-day use of a course.

Frequently asked questions
What language is the course taught in?
English. You can ask questions in English, Spanish or French, and Yannick will answer in your language.
Do I have to attend all three sessions?
All three are included in the same registration and build on each other: the first two give you the full picture of what is new, and the third shows how to install the platform and get it running. Attending all three is recommended. If you miss one, you will receive the recording.
Will I get the recording?
Yes. Every registered participant gets access to the full recording of all three sessions for 90 days. It is viewed online on our platform.
Do I need prior Chamilo experience?
No prior experience with Chamilo is required. Do keep in mind that the course is aimed at administration profiles, and that the third session goes into technical territory: server requirements, installation and configuration. If you already know Chamilo 1.11 you will get more out of the comparisons.
I don't use Chamilo yet. Is this useful for me?
Yes, particularly if you are evaluating Chamilo 3 for your institution. You will see the platform running, what it offers and what it takes to install and maintain it, which is exactly what you need to know before making a decision.
Does this replace full training?
No. Six hours cover the main new features and getting the platform running, not the whole product. If your team needs to master Chamilo 3 in depth, we run longer Chamilo LMS training programs for the instructor role and for the administrator role. Write to us and we will send you the outline.
What if there are more new features by November?
All the better. Chamilo 3 is under active development and each session reflects the state of the version available on that date, so you will always see the most recent work.
Does this qualify me to migrate from 1.11 to Chamilo 3?
No. This course shows you what Chamilo 3 is, what changes compared with the version you run, and how to install and configure it. For migration planning we run a dedicated workshop focused on assessing your installation and building your plan. Participants in this course get priority access and a preferred rate.
Will there be more sessions on Chamilo 3?
Yes. This course is the first in a series. The next one will focus on planning migrations from Chamilo 1.11, and we will announce the date shortly.
Does it include certification?
You will receive a certificate of participation. It is not a certification exam: our official Chamilo certifications are a separate process, with an assessment.
Payment methods, invoicing and receipts for companies
BeezNest Latino invoices customers in the United States and Latin America; BeezNest Belgium invoices Europe and the rest of the world. To keep the early-bird rate, payment must reach BeezNest before October 31. For other payment methods (bank transfer, bitcoin, cash) write to info@beeznest.com.
Can I register several people from my team?
Yes, and it is the sensible choice if several people on your team will be working with Chamilo 3. From two registrations from the same organization we apply a 15% discount on the current rate. Since the group is capped at 10 seats, write to us before registering more than two people and we will organize it with you.
Each person needs their own registration: the certificate of participation is issued in the name of whoever attends, and access to the recording is individual.
What if I can't attend?
You can pass your seat to someone else by letting us know 48 hours in advance, or keep the recording. Please note that the certificate of participation is issued in the name of the person who actually attends, not the person who purchased the seat.
