Live Classes Platform — Host Webinars, Workshops & Virtual Classrooms

Stop stitching together Zoom links and calendar invites. Native live sessions built into your learning platform.

Last Updated: April 2026

Why It Matters

Native Live Sessions

Host live classes directly inside Arythmatic. No Zoom subscription, no third-party integrations, no context switching for learners.

Automatic Recording

Every session is automatically recorded and available as on-demand content. Learners who miss the live session can catch up later.

Scheduling & Reminders

Schedule sessions, send automated reminders, and manage attendance — all from one platform.

Attendance & Engagement Tracking

Track who attended, how long they stayed, and whether they participated — all tied to their learner record automatically.

How It Works

Arythmatic's live classes platform eliminates the fragmented experience of cobbling together Zoom, Google Calendar, and email tools for synchronous learning. The native video conferencing engine is built directly into the LMS, meaning learners join live sessions from the same platform where they access courses, quizzes, and certificates — no separate apps, no meeting links, no context switching. Instructors launch sessions from their admin dashboard with full control over screen sharing, live chat, Q&A moderation, polls, and breakout rooms. Every session is automatically recorded in high quality and can be instantly converted into on-demand course content, creating a growing library of replay material without any additional work. The scheduling system supports one-time events and recurring series with automated email reminders sent at configurable intervals before each session. Attendance tracking is automatic and granular — the system records not just who joined but when they joined, how long they stayed, and whether they participated in chat or Q&A. This attendance data flows directly into each learner's progress record, making it visible in reports and compliance dashboards. Calendar integration ensures sessions appear in learners' personal calendars, reducing no-shows. For organizations running instructor-led training programs, the live classes platform transforms what was previously a logistical nightmare of separate tools into a seamless, trackable experience within a single platform.

Real-World Use Cases

Weekly Instructor-Led Training Series

A corporate training team runs a 6-week leadership development program with weekly live workshops. Each session includes presentations, breakout discussions, and Q&A. Employees in different time zones need access to recordings.

Outcome: 95% average attendance across the series, all sessions automatically recorded and available within hours, and completion tracking shows exactly which employees engaged with both live and recorded content.

Customer Webinar Program

A SaaS company hosts bi-weekly product webinars for customers, covering new features, best practices, and advanced workflows. They need to track which customers attend and follow up with those who don't.

Outcome: Customer webinar attendance increases by 60% due to in-platform convenience, product adoption metrics improve as customers learn advanced features, and the customer success team receives automated attendance reports.

Compliance Training with Live Q&A

A healthcare organization delivers annual compliance training with a live Q&A component where employees can ask questions about real workplace scenarios. Regulators require documentation of interactive training, not just passive video watching.

Outcome: Audit-ready documentation proves interactive training delivery with Q&A participation records, employee satisfaction with compliance training improves by 40%, and the compliance team addresses real scenarios that prevent future violations.

How Arythmatic Compares

Most LMS platforms require third-party tools for live sessions — typically Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet — creating a fragmented learner experience with separate logins, links, and tracking gaps. Platforms like TalentLMS and LearnDash offer Zoom integrations, but attendance data often doesn't sync reliably with learner records. Dedicated webinar tools like WebinarJam or GoToWebinar have no LMS integration at all. Arythmatic is one of the very few platforms with fully native live sessions, meaning video conferencing, attendance tracking, recording, and scheduling all happen within the same platform. No third-party subscriptions, no integration maintenance, and no data synchronization issues.

Getting Started

1Navigate to Live Sessions in your admin dashboard and click Schedule New Session to create your first live class
2Set the session title, description, date, time, and duration — choose between one-time or recurring schedule
3Configure session settings including maximum participants, whether to enable breakout rooms, and chat/Q&A moderation preferences
4Assign the session to a course or make it standalone — course-linked sessions automatically track attendance as part of course progress
5Set up automated email reminders at your preferred intervals (24 hours, 1 hour, 15 minutes before) to maximize attendance
6After the session, review the auto-generated recording and attendance report — optionally add the recording as on-demand course content

Pro Tips

💡Link live sessions to specific lessons within a course so attendance counts toward course progress — this is essential for compliance programs requiring proof of live participation
💡Use the recurring session feature for cohort-based programs, then review series-level analytics to track engagement trends across the full program
💡Enable post-session feedback surveys that automatically appear when learners leave a live class — collect real-time instructor and content ratings
💡Convert your best live session recordings into evergreen course content to create a library of on-demand material with zero additional production effort
💡Schedule sessions across multiple time zones by creating duplicate sessions — track total unique attendance across all time zone sessions in one report
