We checked in with our learning designers — the folks who’ve spent years helping organisations launch training that actually works — to hear what’s making the biggest difference in Moodle Workplace right now.
These aren’t just nice-to-haves. They’re the kind of updates that make people say “this will save me hours” or “I’ve been wanting this for years.”
Here’s what our team is most excited about — and why it matters for learning teams everywhere.
From dashboards to decisions — instantly
“My clients don’t want another spreadsheet. They want to see what’s working — and fix what’s not.”
Now you can turn your reports into interactive visuals — no more digging through rows of data or exporting into another tool. Whether you’re tracking completions, monitoring compliance, or showcasing progress, it’s easy to build visual summaries that actually get seen and used.
- Spot trends at a glance
- Share updates with managers, teams, or leadership — without needing extra software
- Make learning data easier to understand (and act on)
Site admins, breathe easy: managers can handle course enrolments now
“This one’s a game-changer. Managers can finally assign training and follow up — without needing a site-wide role.”
Now, managers defined in your organisation structure can enrol their team members into specific courses, check progress, adjust due dates, and follow up — all within their own space. No more extra admin permissions. No more manual handoffs.
Learning designers love this because it cuts down on admin bottlenecks while keeping organisational structure and control intact.
- Managers can take care of team-level training directly
- Site admins no longer have to manage every enrolment or progress check
- Helps learning stay active and responsive — without extra admin effort
Structured learning, now self-serve
“One of the biggest shifts? Letting people enrol themselves into Programs. It’s small, but it can change the whole dynamic for an organisation.”
Learners could already browse and enrol in individual courses via the Learning Catalogue — but now they can sign up for full Programs too: groups of courses that could be for onboarding, compliance, professional development — or really any other reason you may want to group related trainings.
This opens the door to more structured, intentional learning — without the delays or back-and-forth.
- Learners can start full training paths on their own, when the timing makes sense for them
- Reduces workload for admins while keeping learning visible and organised
Bonus! The new Program enrolment page features a fresh, clear design that makes it easier for learners to find their way and get started with confidence. It builds on the course enrolment experience — and let’s just say, a new look for that might be on the way too 👀.
Plan ahead – let the system handle the rest
“We’ve worked with so many site admins who build amazing workflows with dynamic rules — but still have to rely on calendar reminders to run them. Now they can schedule everything ahead of time and trust it’ll happen when it’s supposed to.”
You can now add start and end dates to dynamic rules — automating tasks like enrolments, notifications, or access changes to run only during the timeframe you set. Whether you’re prepping for a future rollout or just trying to reduce manual overhead, it’s one less thing to worry about.
- Schedule automations in advance and let them run on their own
- Avoid last-minute triggers and reduce admin stress
- Great for teams planning busy periods, leave coverage, or short-term training windows
