The upcoming release of SAP SuccessFactors Learning H12024 promises a set of enhancements that will further enhance learning experiences and facilitate better user engagement. Let's take a quick look at the key highlights of this upcoming release.
Enhanced Flexibility with Optional Assignments in ILX View
In the new release, users will benefit from the ability to access non-required assignments with a configurable removal action. This enhancement is supported by notification alerts for assignments that lack specific due dates, ensuring learners stay informed and engaged without the pressure of mandatory completion deadlines. This feature is particularly advantageous for encouraging an environment that values flexibility and self-paced education.
Administrator and Peer Recommendations
A notable addition is the integration of admin recommendations within the "Suggested for me" section, where users can now access suggestions from administrators and peers. This feature is designed to boost learner engagement by promoting courses, programs, and collections aligned with the organisation's vision and the user's personal development goals.
Customization and Branding with Banners and Custom Cards
Introducing the new banner functionality allows organisations to customise their learning portal with branding and messaging highlighting critical information and guiding learners through their educational journey. Simultaneously, the ability to create up to 100 custom cards allows for a highly personalised learning environment where admins can embed rich media and useful links directly on the learning home page. Please note that each user can only access upto 8 custom cards and each card can only support one video within it.
Simplified Learning History
The updated learning history interface emphasises ease of use and accessibility, making it simpler for users to review their past training records at a glance. This update facilitates better tracking of individual learning journeys and helps identify opportunities for further development.
Streamlined Learning Experience
With the new update, the Integrated Learning Experience (ILX) has been further enhanced and admins now have the option to hide the legacy experience completely so users only access learning in a single experience.
Bulk Merge Users
A significant operational enhancement in the 1H 2024 release is the Bulk User Merge feature. This new functionality allows administrators to efficiently merge learning records from multiple source users to a single target user through the Import Tool. Previously, merging user records could only be performed individually, but now, administrators can handle merges in bulk, which significantly cuts down on time and effort. Each import file can contain up to 200 records, with a monthly cap of 5000 merges. This capability not only streamlines administrative processes but also minimizes errors with built-in data validation features and provides reports for verification.
Other Notable Enhancements
Enhancements to SCORM 1.2 include an increased `cmi.suspend_data` limit, from 4,096 to 64,000 characters. This allows for better progress tracking in longer courses without needing to switch to SCORM 2004 or compress data, facilitating effective learner management and improved course outcomes.
The update to the Learning Cross-Domain Proxlet, aligning with OpenJDK 17.0.9, ensures continued support for third-party content servers. This maintains high standards of security and functionality, with an upgrade to OpenJDK 17.0.9 required to utilize the new proxlet version.
The phased deprecation of unload browser events in Chrome and Edge necessitates updates to SCORM and AICC content. This change addresses potential issues in tracking and data loss, urging content creators to eliminate reliance on unload events for critical data handling.
The Instance Refresh tool now supports up to 500 GB of learning schema and allows direct refresh from live production instances. This automation reduces manual intervention, streamlining updates and maintenance for large-scale learning environments.
As we look ahead to the 1H 2024 release of SAP SuccessFactors Learning, it’s exciting to see the dedication to improving the user experience, enhancing administrative capabilities, and promoting flexibility and customisation. In my opinion, SAP has made significant progress in enhancing the learning experience, and it's a big step forward to witness the Integrated Learning Experience (ILX) coming together. These updates not only meet the evolving needs of learners and administrators but also mark a significant advancement in integrating learning and development seamlessly into organisational growth. It's thrilling to see how these innovations promise to elevate the learning landscape.
