learningCloud 5.18 – Setting pre-requisites (milestones) between sprints within a channel

On 14 September we will deploy the new version of learningCloud (5.18) whose most important new features are:

Setting pre-requisites (milestones) between sprints within a channel

Until this version, navigation between stages of a channel was sequential. A user had to complete all the required sprints of a stage before moving on to the next one. From this version onwards, the channel author can customise the navigation and set the pre-requisites for each sprint. For example, for the second sprint of stage 2, he could set as a pre-requisite:

• Complete all the sprints in stage 1
• Complete some sprints on stage 1
• Complete the previous sprints in stage 2
• No prerequisites

From this version onwards, sequential navigation will no longer be enabled by default but all channels created before this version will keep the previous behaviour, i.e. a user must complete all required sprints of a stage before moving on to the next one.

If you create a new channel, don’t forget to set the pre-requisites.

learningCloud 5.17.1 – Validation at the training level and new author filter.

Validation at training level

Until now, if a user was enrolled in a sprint or channel training that they had previously completed, the platform automatically validated the enrolment in the new training and the user did not need to complete it again.

Now administrators and group administrators can decide, when creating a new training, whether it is validatable or not. The default behaviour will be the current one (it will be validatable) but they will be able to change this behaviour so that users who register for this new training will have to complete it again.

In many occasions an employee must re-complete a training to obtain an annual certification. In this type of scenario it is necessary to deactivate the option “validations” in the training.

Filtering by author in the sprints and channels list

We have added a new filter in the screen that shows the list of sprints and in the screen that shows the list of channels to allow filtering by author.

This way it is possible to display all the sprints or channels that have been created by a specific author.

A new field has been added in the sprint list to show who is the creator of the sprint.

Logo customisation in the student portal
