When the Education Module Makes Sense
The Education module is built into ParsaLink for teams that sell or run training as part of their business:- B2B trainers / consultants running structured onboarding programs for their customers
- Agencies delivering a course as part of an engagement (with the customer as a contact and the course as the deliverable)
- Service businesses with certification or compliance training tied to specific accounts
What’s in the Module
Courses
A Course has a name, description, instructor (a team member), and a set of Course Documents (PDFs, slides, videos, anything you upload). Each course is its own entity at/api/education/courses/.
Enrollments
Enroll any Contact in any Course. Enrollments carry start date, progress, completion date, and a free-text status field for your own conventions (“in progress” / “completed” / “dropped”). One row per (contact, course).Course Instructors
Team members who own a course. Useful for filtering (“show me everyone Jane is teaching this quarter”) and for the enrollment confirmation emails — the instructor’s name + signature lands automatically.Course Documents
Files attached to a course. Uploaded files are served from ParsaLink’s storage; students access them through the portal page or via signed URLs.Enrolling Someone
1
Open the contact
From CRM → Contacts, open the person you want to enroll.
2
Enroll in a course
Click Actions → Enroll in Course and pick from your course list.
3
Confirm welcome email
Toggle whether ParsaLink should send the enrollment welcome email (using the course instructor’s signature) immediately or hold it for you to send manually.
4
Done
The enrollment shows up on the contact’s timeline. Updates flow back to the contact too — when they complete the course, a Completed entry lands on their record.
Pairing with Automations
Common patterns:tag_added→ enroll — when a contact is taggednew-customer, automatically enroll them in your onboarding course.- Enrollment complete → opportunity — when a contact finishes a free intro course, create an opportunity to upsell to the paid course.
- Scheduled → reminder email — daily cron that finds enrollments with no progress in 7 days and emails the student a nudge.
