Work-Based Learning Launch
The Work-Based Learning Beta will be coming to a close at the end of June as we prepare for the full-launch in July. Thank you to everyone who participated and gave us feedback during this period.
Please be aware that access to the WBL area will be disabled for any accounts that have not signed up. Any WBL data that has been set up during the Beta will remain in your account and become accessible once more should you choose to continue using WBL.

Improvements
Improvements to Reassigning Trainers to Courses (AX-13311)
When updating the trainer of a Class or Accredited Workshop an option is now available to also update the Trainer of the linked Class or Workshops. If Online Assessments are linked to the Workshop/Class being updated, there will also be an option to set the new Trainer as an Assessor for each of the linked Assessment instances. Previously, you would need to individually allocate the Trainer at the Workshop, Class, and Assessment, but this can now be done at the point of the Trainer being updated. This makes it easier to manage Trainer updates and ensure the changes are applied everywhere in the system they are needed.
Trainer Competency Management Permissions (AX-14719)
Specific permissions have been added to control whether users are able to manage Trainer Competencies. Any users who currently have the Trainer Management permission - which previously gave access - will be given the new permission at the time of release. This allows greater control over which users in your account have access to view and manage Trainer-related information.
All functions related to Trainer Competencies - including the Trainer Competencies report - will require the new Trainer Competencies permission. All other functions currently controlled by Trainer Management that do not relate to Trainer Competencies, will continue to be controlled by the Trainer Management permission.
AX-14617 - Improvements have been made to Credit Transfers applied via the Class Enrolment page for multiple enrolments. When existing unit completions exist for the Learners being enrolled, there will be an option available to 'Apply Credit Transfers for each enrolment'. You can also view the details of existing Unit completions for the students being enrolled before applying them.
AX-14749 - 'Number of Units of Competency Competent' has been added as a display field and filter to the Class Enrolments - Warehoused report.
AX-14729 - When creating a Workshop as a user that does not have the 'Workshop Finance' permission, finance-related fields will now be completely hidden from the user. When the Workshop is created, the values will be inherited from the Workshop Type or another Workshop if it is being duplicated. Previously, in this scenario, any finance-related fields on a new workshop would have defaulted to $0.00.
AX-14789 - The Assessment Version history log will now record when an Assessment is 'Submitted for Approval' by users without permission to publish Assessments.
AX-14879 - For clients who use multiple E-learning enrolments in the same SCORM activity, the system has been improved to better match up the correct learner record with the linked class. This improvement only applies to newly created Class enrolments.
AX-14537 - The ordering of Workshops, Units and Qualifications has been updated on the Academic Transcript to appear chronologically based on finish date (earliest finish date appears first).
AX-14873 - The maximum width of the content area when undertaking an Online Assessment has been increased to 800px to match the effective width in Online Assessment Authoring.
AX-14966 - When searching for a class in the Report Builder, you can now enter the Class ID as a search term.
