Website update: new features and some items re-designed

by David Hawes 20. December 2008 15:02

We have just updated the website with a new feature - the 'Availability Request' this allows training coordinators for an organisation to send in bulk emails and or sms messages to their trainers and assessors to see if they are available for work. For more details on this functionality please read the more detailed post on the subject.

We have also redesigned the screens for adding and managing portfolios with the Portfolio Builder. We had got feedback on how confusing is was to use. We have replaced the initial screen with a much clearer layout for the portfolios. When you open a portfolio you can see what pages have been setup for that portfolio and what items from the evidence store have been used to fulfil those pages. For a diagram on the concept of how the portfolio builder works please view our help section

Other updates are mostly cosmetic with the breadcrumb control at the top of the page plus better layout rendering for Firefox browsers.
