Learning & Development June 2022

This section contains enhancements in Infor HR Talent.

External learner access

Learners from outside of the customer organization, such as partners, third-party workers, and other non-employee groups, can now use the application. Distributed administration can be used to optimize the management of employee learners and outside learners. Outside learners register and then have access to their user profiles, assigned activities, and the learning catalog. Learning administrators track outside learner progress using the application's standard tools.

Currently this enhancement is available only to implementations that are in progress and new implementations thereafter. Customer must have LearnerExtEntity IFS External Entity Setup

LinkedIn learner content provider integration

An enhancement offers integration between LinkedIn Learning content and Learning and Development. Through automated synchronization, this enhancement ensures that the most updated content is used in learning activities. Customer-provided changes are not overwritten during synchronization. Errors are reduced, and manual processes for client administrators are eliminated.

Improved enrollment experience

The enrollment experience for employees has been improved for ease of use. Enrollment for specific activities, development plans and certifications now requires fewer clicks, reducing errors and time spent enrolling. Employees can enroll from the Activity page, Development Plan page, or Certification page and from the associated Details pages. Empoyees can enroll in these components through the catalog as well.
