LearnUpon is a learning management system (LMS) that has partnered with impact.com to provide you with a platform on which you can supply partners with training materials. These materials can include an assortment of educational content—from learning paths, to exams, LearnUpon resources, and more.
The LearnUpon integration is ideal for brands that want to train their partners before those partners begin marketing efforts, as well as for brands that want to educate their partners on how to effectively promote products and services.

You've just created an account-wide integration, meaning that any partner with the LearnUpon login link you created earlier will have access to LearnUpon.
