ikigize System Documentation

Welcome to the comprehensive system documentation for the ikigize learning platform.

About ikigize

ikigize lets people and organisations build an academy around the work they are actually doing. A campus is that academy. Learning is for doing: a shared start while everyone needs the same basics, then the specific task. Read the Learning Philosophy.

  • Flexible Roles: Customizable roles with granular permissions per entity
  • Invitations & Requests: Invite-only or request-access flows for controlled enrollment

  • Mixed Content Types: Combine chapters, tasks, sessions, and assessments
  • Progress Tracking: Detailed analytics on learning progression

Learning

Learning is for doing. A shared start helps while everyone needs the same basics. After that, people learn for the specific task.

  • The task: Learn the part that lets someone do something they could not do before
  • The context: What is already known, what the next task still needs, how deep to go to stand behind the result
  • The lever: Room to choose what fits, and help seeing what to learn and how — not another catalogue
