Release 87: Event management made easier

Release 87:
Event management made easier

Reinier BatterinkOctober 12, 2020Release Notes

In the upcoming release, on October 13, 2020, we will make managing events a lot easier. We will also ensure that the catalogue and home screen will be upgraded and we will offer a much better overview for the learners. Nice additions right? We are very happy about this new release. You too? Feedback also makes us happy, so let us know what you think of this new release!

Extension of managing events

In the previous release, we connected events and made it possible to add events to the catalogue. In this release we will upgrade the events again. Now we focus on managing the events.

So it was not easy for administrators to (un)enrol the learners for an event themselves. Administrators were partly dependent on the enrolments of the learners. Sometimes an administrator wants to decide for himself who is allowed to attend which event. With some new adjustments, administrators can now (in bulk) influence the planning and organization of specific events. At an event, administrators can set a minimum and maximum number of learners. If the maximum is reached, some learners will no longer be able to enrol. The administrator can solve this by offering a waiting list in the form of an event. These leaners can be enrolled for the next event. This way, no learners have to miss an event. This makes managing events more efficient.

In the video below I show you how to manage events.

Creating an overview for learners

As a learner you like to have an overview. You want to know what is expected of you and which learning journeys still need some attention. When you as a learner have access to many learning journeys, the overview can sometimes get lost. That’s why we came up with something: Tagging learning journeys and products. This will help the learners to keep an overview because they can use the filters that you create. This provides structure and overview.

I’ll show how it’s done. Watch the next video.

What else is new?

Instructors can export the answers from the forms and reflection activity.
Image quality of the video conferencing tool has been improved.
Learner groups can be removed while they are still registered in a course. The learner group must then be empty.
Mail notifications for “new MemoTraining available” are forwarded for a maximum of one month. It is possible to copy and modify existing products in the catalogue.
We’ve made some performance adjustments so that customers with a large amount of courses don’t need to load as long to recall the courses.

Personalised advertising

You probably use Facebook or LinkedIn and also, you probably use Google from time to time to search for stuff. Then, you’ll know that they have advertisements on there. To make those less annoying (i.e. more personalised), we use a number of services on our website.

Website statistics

Feedback is valuable. When it comes to how well our website works for you, feedback is formed by numbers and statistics. That’s why we use Google Analytics and Hotjar to learn how visitors move, click and act on our website. To make it less scary, we anonymise this data before we save it by masking the last few numbers of your IP-address. And we do not allow Google or other parties to use this information for any other purposes.
