Our latest minor release focuses on automation and enhanced functionality to streamline your LMS experience.

These updates are designed to save you time while improving Learner engagement across your organization.

Scheduled Enrollments - Custom Date Support for Enrollment Triggers

Previously, scheduling was limited to relative dates like Date Hired or Date Terminated. With this update, Admins can now select any custom date field assigned to a User (e.g., Promotion Date) as a trigger for Enrollment. This functionality is available across all Course types—including Online Courses, Curricula, and Course Bundles—providing much greater flexibility for aligning learning with key milestones.

New Time to Complete Mode

  • Supports bulk editing.
  • Improves accuracy for vendor library content.

 

Automatic Language Detection

The LMS now detects Course Language during content conversion by analyzing titles and descriptions.

Both enhancements streamline Admin workflows and improve the Learner Experience.
