CourseStorm is on a mission to streamline access to education by offering an impossibly simple way for local education programs to list their classes online, spread the word about their offerings, and process registrations for them, complete with credit card processing.

But in the US, measured by enrollments, there are 2x more registrations in classes outside of traditional school. These classes are offered by a variety of providers including after-school programs, hospitals, libraries, museums, non-profits, and internal training performed at large companies. CourseStorm is the fastest and easiest way for these organizations to get up and running.
