Open edX® is the open-source LMS powering 160 million+ learners globally. For non-profits, it means a platform with no per-learner licensing costs, multilingual support, offline access, and full ownership of your data — so your educational reach grows as your mission grows.
Open edX® scales to thousands of concurrent learners without per-user fees. Non-profits can offer free or low-cost courses to any community worldwide — removing cost as a barrier to educational impact.
Open edX® is fully open-source: no proprietary lock-in, no licensing dependency, and full portability of your data and content. Choose Edunext Cloud or Your Cloud (BYOC) based on your data requirements.
Deliver content in 15+ languages with fully localized learner interfaces, course materials, and certificates. Essential for international organizations serving linguistically diverse communities across borders.
Build engaging courses with video, SCORM, LTI tools, H5P, PDFs, xBlocks, discussion forums, graded assessments, and interactive exercises — covering every content format used in modern non-profit education.
The Open edX® native iOS and Android app allows learners to download video content and continue learning without internet access — critical for non-profits serving communities in remote or low-connectivity areas.
For mission-driven organizations, every dollar matters. Open edX® eliminates per-learner fees, removes vendor lock-in, and gives non-profits full ownership of their platform — so resources go to impact, not licensing.
