EXPAND THE CAPABILITY AND CONTRIBUTION OF YOUR PEOPLE 

We are thrilled to share the latest updates to enhance your organization’s coaching experience. In response to your thoughtful feedback, we have introduced several new Learner and Administrator tools to benefit your organization. Here’s a glimpse of what’s new and coming soon. 

SKILLSOFT COACHING ENHANCEMENTS:  

SELF-SERVICE COMPANY SETTINGS — TARGETED FOR NOVEMBER 

The release will allow you to manage your company account directly in the Enterprise Dashboard, offering the flexibility to update and review company documents, add your welcome video, message, and logo, and adjust your AI settings. 

ENHANCED ASSESSMENT REPORTS — TARGETED FOR NOVEMBER 

We've upgraded our assessment reporting to provide clearer insights and better data visualization. Both initial and remeasurement assessments and engagement surveys will feature options to filter by the assessment or survey. In addition, we will expose the number of responses by category and trends on how they answered. On hover of each row you will be able to see additional data.

Checkout the export, you will have two options. One export will be providing you with each individual response and another will provide you the averages by category for each assessment and skill. Be sure to also update learner launch dates and groups if you've used the same assessment year of year to see how the data changes!
