System Update for February – Mid March 2021

REPORTER Tip: Best Practices for Course Admins Did you know registrants will only see courses on their Training Summary if they have received a Final Attendance status of either Pass or Completed? A Course Admin or Instructor should be updating final attendance for participants that need completion credit (unless your instance is integrated with Moodle and setup to track completions automatically). If the final attendance is not marked, the participants will not see the course on their training summary nor under the ‘Completed Courses’ section on their dashboard.

Below are the highlights from recent updates to the REPORTER production environment; a full list that includes additional details can be seen here.

  • Completed multiple improvements to better support Course Recommendations, including improving the import template and adding the ability to customize the recommendation email message. Support documentation for this functionality can be seen here
  • Instances now provide the option to link registrants to Learning Management Systems other than Moodle; for more about this option, see the resources linked at the end of this post.
  • Membership functionality is now available. Documentation will be available on the support site soon. If your department would like to sell memberships, please contact reporter_support@ncsu.edu to discuss.
  • Custom Groups tied to Enrollment Restrictions are also now available for limited use, please contact REPORTER Support to have one created.
