Where did my tools go?

Progress starts with change

We know that change isn’t always easy, especially when it involves letting go of some of the tools you’ve come to rely on every day to succeed in your role.

At Upskill People, we ask ourselves every day, “How can we improve our LMS and make it simpler and easier to use?”

We’re going to be retiring some of our older trusted reporting tools, which is a big step forward for us and for you. For some customers, these tools will be removed completely; for others, they’ll still be available for a while but will no longer be supported by our Help team.

Why now?

This change helps us focus on building faster, smarter features - all designed to improve the experience for the people who matter most - you.

What’s coming?

We are often asked for the occasional new feature, and one consistent requirement that you have is to be able to download your own completion data, in a format that suits you best, so that’s just one of the things we’re doing.

We've also got some great news for your learners. They've always been able to access their courses on any device, but their experience is about to get even better. Soon, they'll find faster, smoother, and simpler courses, especially on mobile. The fresh new look isn't just easier on their eyes, it will also help them learn quicker and retain more.

And there’s more… Move over ECB here comes … er, ECB!

Your course builder is getting a major upgrade, it's now Easy Content Builder. You'll find it easier to build high-quality courses faster, improving productivity. Your learners get a better mobile experience, picking up new skills quickly, anywhere. And your organisation benefits from highly effective, well-informed teams.

And it doesn’t end there! To see what we’re building next for you, head over to our Upskill People Product Board where you can see what’s coming and leave us your feedback too!
