We are thrilled to announce the 26.0 release of PreprLabs! With this release, organizations can attach to Labs, through our Resource Module, courses found in third party Learning Management Systems. This will not only enhance the impact of the Lab but would also contribute towards increasing the ROI in training.

We are offering two techniques for uploading external Courses to PreprLabs; SCORM files and Go 1 Integration. This will provide Managers with the ability to enhance the content of existing Labs through the Resource Module.

Another exciting feature that we are including in Release 26.0 is Unified Integration which gives the user the ability to add contacts from select HR applications (e.g. BambooHR) to their Prepr Organization, Lab or Challenge. Managers will be able to select multiple HR applications (e.g. Bamboo HR, Salesforce etc) they would like to integrate into their Organization on PreprLabs. Integration with HR applications will save time in selecting and inviting participants to Labs and Challenges with the ability to bulk import contacts.

Finally, with the intent of improving the user experience, we have introduced into Release 26.0 design improvements to the Challenge, Lab and Resource Module pages.

Role selection is a two step process. First you click on the User button to the right of the contact’s name to assign them to a role.
