What is a welcome video?

A welcome video appears the first time employees log in to your academy. It’s a great opportunity to welcome your colleagues and introduce them to the learning environment.

You can choose from:

  • A custom video uploaded from your computer

  • A video via a Vimeo link

  • A default Studytube video: “Welcome to the academy”

We recommend creating your own personalized video—for example, to announce the launch of your academy.


How to set the welcome video

  1. Go to 'Academy Settings' in the LMS

  2. Enable "Show welcome video"

  3. Enter a name for the video

  4. Upload a video or paste a Vimeo link

  5. Add a short introductory message below the video


Multilingual academies: different videos per language

If your academy supports multiple languages and you want a different video for each language:

  1. Select the preferred language

  2. Tick "Use a custom video for this language"

  3. Repeat the upload steps for that language
