Release Announcement: Credentials and Events

We are excited to announce our most recent round of enhancements to Credentials and Events!

In Credentials, we've made changes to Topic settings to allow Platform Managers to designate the number of times completed courses and activities can count toward the number of hours/units required in a topic. In addition, we've streamlined the view/access settings to maximize usability.

More information on these new settings is available here.

In Events, we've made several enhancements, including a new Copy feature. You are now able to copy any existing event to create a brand new one!

Simply open the Event and click the Copy button near the bottom of the page. You will be able to give your copied event a new name and date and once saved, your new event will have all of the same details (description, instructor, location, enrollment settings, etc.) as the original event.

We have also released a highly requested change to the Events index page. Now when platform managers navigate to Manage Events, they will be able to get at-a-glance enrollment information for each of their events.

The new "Enrollments" column will give you a snapshot of the number of users enrolled, how many seats are remaining and if any enrollment requests are still pending.

And lastly, we have added a cancellation notification for all cancelled events. When an event is cancelled, a platform notification and email will be sent to not only all enrolled users, but also any user eligible to enroll.
