Online learning
Community Heart is a learning management system (LMS) for the New Zealand community sector. It is a shared platform that takes away the technology headache.
About Community Heart
Made and used by those in the NZ community sector
Working in the NZ community sector, we found big online learning platforms too expensive, and too complex. So, we used our personal experience to create a learning management system (LMS) specifically for non-profits in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Community Heart is affordable, flexible, powerful, and fully featured.

What Our Learners Say About Their Experience
Community Heart online learning courses are taken by all sorts of people,
from all around New Zealand. Here’s what they say:
"This was an amazingly helpful short course. So easy to understand and so so so many tips along the way. I learnt so much and now I am a lot more confident. I will definitely be changing some of my habits now I know how!"
"Inspirational and full of fun. Love the interactive activities."
"Best module so far, due to variety of activity in it.
It helps me refresh and retrain and retain."
"I thought this was excellent; short, sharp, good examples used to illustrate points and easy to navigate – the ‘tests’ were a bit of a reality check for me (I got a couple of things wrong through not reading the question properly) but the learning was well embedded by the time I finished the programme."
"Great overview of cultural practices and their values.
A reminder and awareness of how we need to treat each other."
"Very simply explained but I didn’t feel talked down to. Thank you."
"Great course. Very well laid out thank you."
