Create newsletters and schedule automated delivery!
You can now add Newsletters to your courses and other catalog entries to help you easily communicate with your learners! The builder includes automated scheduling options based on specific date and time and based on number of days after enrollment.
Enrollees receive Newsletters as emails and remain in their Newsletter screen.
Limit mastery awards that can be earned from coaching sessions
Authors have been able to set up coaching sessions as ways for enrollees to earn mastery awards. Now, they can define a Maximum mastery award for sessions, so enrollees can't earn unlimited mastery awards for attending sessions.
In this example, each coaching session is worth 10 mastery awards, but the author has set the maximum number that can be earned from sessions at 30. So, after 3 sessions, enrollees no longer earn points for them.
