Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: 27 June 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to CBTSky, a learning marketplace and LMS platform operated as a brand under Network Hosting Group.

These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of CBTSky, including learner accounts, instructor accounts, course enrollment, instructor onboarding, course publishing, course sales, payments, commissions, payouts, certificates, support, and related services.

By using CBTSky, creating an account, enrolling in a course, purchasing a course, requesting instructor onboarding, publishing a course, or using any platform feature, you agree to these Terms and Conditions.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use the platform.

 

2. Nature of Platform

CBTSky is an online learning marketplace where approved instructors can publish and sell their courses, and learners can enroll in those courses.

CBTSky provides the technology platform, LMS dashboard, course listing system, enrollment system, payment collection support, instructor onboarding system, and related platform services.

Unless a course is specifically created or published by CBTSky itself, the course content, teaching, accuracy, updates, quality, support, promises, certificates, and learner outcomes are primarily the responsibility of the respective instructor.

CBTSky acts as a platform facilitator and may collect course fees from learners on behalf of instructors. After applicable deductions, commission, charges, taxes, disputes, or adjustments, CBTSky may settle eligible instructor earnings according to its payout rules.

 

3. Definitions

In these Terms:

“Platform” means the CBTSky website, LMS, learner dashboard, instructor dashboard, course marketplace, payment system, and related services.

“User” means any person using the platform, including learners, instructors, visitors, or account holders.

You are responsible for keeping your username, password, OTP, and account access secure. You must not share your account access with any other person.
