Many RTOs deliver training for multiple corporate clients on the same Moodle instance — a workplace health and safety program for a mining company and a customer service program for a retail chain, both powered by the same LMS. Each client expects their students to see their organisation's logo, colours, and branding — not the RTO's branding. The Cohort Branding plugin makes this possible: different cohorts see different branding, applied automatically based on Moodle cohort membership, without separate Moodle instances or complex theme switching.
Why your RTO needs this
Winning and retaining corporate training contracts often depends on your ability to deliver a professionally branded, white-label experience. Clients don't want their employees seeing a competitor's logo or an unfamiliar brand when they open the LMS. Cohort Branding gives RTOs a powerful commercial advantage — the ability to offer each corporate client a branded training environment without the cost and complexity of separate Moodle instances. It's also valuable for RTOs delivering dual-branded programs with industry partners.
Key Features
Per-Cohort Brand Profiles
Create separate brand profiles for each client — logo, colour palette, favicon, login page image, and email templates — and assign them to Moodle cohorts.
Automatic Brand Switching
When a student logs in, Moodle automatically detects their cohort and applies the corresponding brand profile — no student action required.
Custom Login Pages
Each client can have a unique Moodle login URL with their own branded login page — creating a seamless experience from first visit.
Email Template Branding
All Moodle notification emails sent to a cohort use the client's branding — logos, colours, and sender name — rather than the default RTO branding.
Dashboard Customisation
Each brand profile can include custom dashboard layouts, course category visibility, and featured content blocks specific to that client's program.
