How we help nonprofits
Most nonprofits come to us with more people to train than staff to train them. Start with one of these needs, at a price that fits, and add more when it helps.
Volunteers trained and ready before the season
A challenge you may be facing
Fewer people volunteer than before the pandemic, while sport bodies require abuse prevention training for adults working with young athletes.
How we can help
BrivaLMS gets everyone registered and trained in time, with flat published prices and a setup that typically takes less than a day.
Staff are stretched thin, and leaders want AI to handle routine work like data entry and drafting emails, but worry about inaccurate results and privacy.
How we can help
Applications checked on arrival, applicants told what is missing, and funder reports built through the year, with a person reviewing every output before it goes out.
Programs we've built with some of the best teams in nonprofits
The Neovation team put the eLearning courses into readable, bite-sized pieces where we didn’t lose the content or the intent of what we had. The result was a consistent look from course to course, from section to section. It was critical that the language was clean and very concise. What the Neovation team came up with was just outstanding.

Within a day. A free BrivaLMS account is live within minutes of signing up with a work email, and setup typically takes less than a day, with no implementation phase.
Can volunteers sign themselves up?
Yes, on BrivaLMS's paid plans. A self-registration form lets volunteers sign up and start training without someone adding each one by hand.
We're a small team. Is automation worth it?
Usually not below ten people. A smaller team rarely has enough handoffs between roles and systems for automation to pay off, so start with AI Prompting Essentials (opens in a new tab), our free AI course.
Will automations send things out without us seeing them?
Only if you decide they should. We build every process to wait for a person's approval before anything goes to a client, a member or a board, and the judgment calls stay with your people. You can make a process fully hands-off, but only you make that call.
Is this about replacing our people?
No. We automate the retyping and the chasing, the work that moves between people and systems without really needing a person. Your team keeps the work that needs thinking.
