Have Questions?

We’ve listed a few common questions below to help you evaluate CiviAcademy. If we’ve missed something, shoot us an email!

Do you offer any refunds?

If, after a 7 day period beginning at subscription, CiviAcademy isn’t working for you and is not helping you master CiviCRM, we’ll provide you a full refund, no questions asked.

Who is this ‘Dreamcrusher’ fella, anyway?

Nobody knows exactly who he is or where he comes from, but he has a wealth of real world experience regarding the use of CRMs by nonprofits and will gladly share it with you.

What language are the videos in?

All CiviAcademy videos are recorded in English and have English subtitles available. At present, subtitles are not available in other languages.

Can I submit requests for specific video tutorials?

Absolutely! And, even better, when they are accepted we’ll produce those videos! 😀 But, be forewarned, Dreamcrusher may squash your dreams, depending on how applicable your request is.

Is CiviAcademy free for CiviCRM Members?

CiviCRM Members are nonprofit organizations that get what we’re doing and, through their own generosity, have opted to send over a bit of funding to the Core Team in order that we can sustain the project. As a result, we pull out all the stops for CiviCRM Members and provide them with discounts on paid work (with the Core Team), access to Extended Security Release, and access to CiviAcademy for as long as they are active members.

Is CiviAcademy included with CiviCRM Spark?

Yup! Access to CiviAcademy ships with all active Spark subscriptions. If you move on from Spark one fateful day, well access to CiviAcademy will be disabled. Don’t worry, you can always re-subscribe.

CiviCRM is an open source project that develops and maintains software for nonprofits. Our mission is to ensure that any nonprofit organization, regardless of budget, size or mission, has access to a world-class CRM.

The CiviCRM project is managed by CiviCRM LLC (aka “the Core Team”), a California-based Limited Liability Company. We are a team of seven people located around the world.

CiviCRM is independent and self-funded, relying on code contributions and on financial support provided by members, subscribers, partners and avid donors.

CiviCRM’s only shareholders are the users, contributors and supporters that make up the CiviCRM community.
