PROPEL YOUR ORGANIZATION AND PEOPLE TO GROW TOGETHER

We continually release new features and enhancements based on your feedback and ideas. We want to share some recent additions with you here. You can review the complete list of changes in the June 20 Release Notes

LEADERBOARDS NOW AVAILABLE TO LEARNERS 

The leaderboard functionality helps you motivate and engage your learners through gamification and a sense of community. Learners can compare their skilling activities with their peers, including earned digital badges and course completions and participate in friendly competition. They can view their ranking over time, within their team, or across their organization. To learn more about how leaderboards display to learners, see Leaderboards. For more information on configuring different leaderboard views, see Leaderboard configuration.

Visit the Learning Edge to find an end-user marketing template to help you generate awareness across your organization.

REPORTING UPDATES IMPROVE YOUR ABILITY TO MEASURE OUTCOMES

The new Skillsoft Percipio Reporting tools allow you to create and save your reports, efficiently schedule and share them with others in your organization, and gain valuable insights while measuring and tracking outcomes. To improve the learning experience, we made the following enhancements: 

  • All Skillsoft template reports that were in beta (Detailed Activity, User Summary, User Listing, Bootcamp and Leadercamp reports) are now formally released. These provide the best configurability and we encourage you to use them for your reporting needs.
  • The Learner Activity beta report is now called the Detailed Activity report and contains three new global filters: Collections, Content grouping, and Content title. The link to this report now displays on the Analytics menu.
  • A new Leaderboard report is now available to show how learners rank for badges and completions.

Visit the Learning Edge to learn more about the reporting updates.

LEARNING ADMINS CAN NOW CREATE AND MANAGE AUDIENCES 

To help your organization democratize learning, your learning admins now have the ability to create child audiences when you enable the Manage child audiences as an administrator permission. With this permission turned on, you can then assign your learning admins as audience administrators when you create an audience. When learning admins become audience administrators, they can create and manage child audiences, which are audiences that are a subset of the audience they administer. For more information about the new audience hierarchy, see Audience Management.

NEW ASSIGNMENT WORKFLOW 

You can now see an improved workflow when creating and editing assignments that align with the stepped flow for journeys. The new workflow allows you to save and finish later to avoid losing changes. In addition, you can now add the name of another user or department as the assigner. For more information, see Create assignment.

ACCESS THE LEARNING EDGE THROUGH THE EXPLORE MENU 

The Explore menu now links to the Learning Edge, Skillsoft's online user group community site. For more information on configuring the options on this menu, see Explore.

UPDATED LEARNER EXPERIENCE FOR TRANSLATED CLOSED CAPTIONS 

To help learners using Skillsoft Percipio in a language other than English, learners now see the following:



  • When learners browse the Library or perform content searches, they now see a message in their local language notifying them that they can access English courses with translated closed captions.
  • For learners conducting searches in English, we have introduced a new filter called Subtitles/CC.

MULTIPLE COMPLETIONS NOW SUPPORTED FOR CUSTOM CONTENT 

If you publish custom courses, learners now have the option to restart the course for an updated completion certificate or to meet business requirements.  

NEW EARLY ADOPTER PROGRAM FOR COMPLIANCE CONTENT WITHIN SKILLSOFT PERCIPIO 

You no longer need a separate interface to manage your Skillsoft Compliance program. When you migrate your compliance content into the Percipio platform, you will be able to do the following directly in Percipio:

  • Assign compliance content from the Learn --> Assignment menu.
  • Require learners to retake a compliance course.
  • Add compliance content to channels and journeys along with non-compliance content.
  • Grant waivers and completions for compliance content.
  • Run reports that include data on compliance completions, including multiple completions and assignments.
  • Configure compliance courses with text, videos, and policy documents.
