Coaching and training software: KernAcademy
KernAcademy is the coaching and training platform built by KERN-IT: courses, sessions, attendance, one-to-one coaching, CRM and invoicing in a single tool. Paid monthly, all inclusive: start with the free edition, paid editions stay controlled. And for organisations that want their own academy, it comes as white label.
It is one of our business platforms: complete software, designed, hosted and maintained by our team in Brussels. Built for coaches, independent trainers, academies and training centres juggling a calendar, an enrolment spreadsheet and invoicing.
Every business platform ships with its AI assistant: here Sherpa, supporting your operations in plain language from your data, read-only.
Your courses and students, finally in one place
Courses & lessons
Build your courses as lessons, publish them and track enrolments. From a one-off programme to a full curriculum.
Sessions & attendance
Plan sessions, record attendance, keep each group's history. Absentees show up immediately.
One-to-one coaching
Coaching relationships, individual sessions, shared resources and progress tracking for every coachee.
Teaching resources
Documents, materials and exercises, organised by tags and assigned to the right students at the right time.
And everything that keeps your business alive
CRM & pipeline
Prospects, contacted, qualified, clients: your sales pipeline with notes, tags, tasks and reminders. The prospect becomes a student without falling back into the spreadsheet.
Invoicing & PEPPOL
Invoice your coachees and clients, with PEPPOL e-invoicing for companies and institutions.
Multi-organisation
Work alone or as a team: academies, schools and collectives manage their trainers and students in separate spaces.
A glimpse of the platform
In practice, a week with KernAcademy looks like this: on Monday, a CRM prospect moves to qualified after your call. On Wednesday, your evening session records its attendance and a coachee receives their exercises. On Friday, enrolments for the new course come in and the month's invoicing is ready.
The coach dashboard: your activity at a glance, from courses to enrolments.
- Published courses and drafts at a glance
- Active students and recent enrolments with statuses

The trainer's CRM: every contact has its stage, reminders and history, as a list or a pipeline.
- Stages: prospect, contacted, qualified, proposal, client
- Reminders on contacts to follow up
- List or pipeline view, your way of working
- Converted clients move to the student side with no re-entry
Calendar, spreadsheet and message threads vs your digital core

Who is it for?
Coaches & independent trainers
Start for free, structure your courses and pipeline, and the tool grows with your activity.
Academies & schools
Several trainers, groups, attendance to justify: the multi-organisation platform keeps the register.
Companies & organisations
Internal training or a structured coaching offer: as white label and custom builds for your internal processes.
Designed and supported in Belgium by the KERN-IT team, hosted in Europe. Your data is yours: exportable at any time, guaranteed reversibility, GDPR by design.
Support is local too: you talk to the people who build the platform, not to an anonymous call centre. An issue reported in the morning is often fixed the same day, and your feature requests feed directly into the product roadmap.
How does it work? Made-to-measure software
Generic SaaS tools are frustrating: you end up juggling a dozen of them to cover your business, and none quite fits. Full custom development costs a lot and takes months. Our business platforms are made-to-measure: a proven base, adjusted precisely to your activity.
1. A base already tailored
KernAcademy exists and already runs: courses, sessions, attendance, coaching, CRM, invoicing. The core of the business is built and proven in production; you start with the free edition, funding nothing.
2. Adjusted to your pedagogy
Your course formats, your certification tracks, your integrations, your reporting: from configuration to the dedicated edition custom-built by the team behind the platform. Up to white label if you wish: your colours, your logo, your domain, your academy.
3. Paid monthly, all inclusive
Hosting, backups, updates and support included. Paid editions follow your growth, never the other way round; the custom edition is set by two dials: how much custom work you want, and how fast you want to move, with a yearly reserve of development days.

Frequently asked questions
Our business platforms are complete software platforms developed and operated by KERN-IT, each ready to use for a given need. KernAcademy for coaching and training, GestAccount for invoicing, MuseCore for museums. Mature products, without funding their development, and customisable because we master all of its code. It is made-to-measure software: a proven base, adjusted to your activity, instead of a dozen generic tools or a full build to fund.
KernAcademy starts with a free edition. Paid editions are controlled monthly subscriptions sized to your activity (solo coach, academy); the custom edition is set by two dials: how much custom work you want, and how fast you want to move, with a yearly reserve of development days, white label included. We present the right plan during the demo.
The subscription is not money down the drain: it covers full use of an operated platform (hosting, support, continuous evolutions) that improves every month. And you stay free: your courses, students and history can be retrieved at any time in open formats, reversibility is part of the contract.
White label means the platform carries your brand instead of ours, up to offering it as your own product. Logo, colours, domain name, email and document templates: the academy your students and coachees see carries your brand. KERN-IT appears nowhere if you prefer.
Yes. We import your contacts, students, courses and history from your files or previous tools. Data migration is part of the onboarding.
On servers in Europe, GDPR compliant. Daily backups, encrypted exchanges, audit log. Dedicated hosting is available for organisations that require it.
The commitment stays flexible: the plan is sized and terminated under clear conditions, presented during the demo. If you stop, you get all of your data back in open formats: reversibility is part of the contract.
