Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is the User Interface (UI) changing?
A: LearnUpon has released the latest version of the learning management system that incorporates greater flexibility, ease of use, and user interactivity to enhance the learner’s experience.
Q: Will my business be impacted?
A: Clients will not be impacted by these changes. Client settings and all user transcripts will remain intact. The impact will be with greater ease and use by the employees taking training in the learning portal.
Q: What is changing?
A: The Users Interface (UI). These are the LMS pages that users have become accustomed to seeing each time they log-in and take training. The enhancements make the LMS experience easier to use, more pleasing, with greater functionality.
Q: Why is the “Admin View” different from the “User View”?
A: Administrators and Managers have access to two different views. One is based on their role (the administrator) and the other is their learner view. This is to create a visual separation for when someone is in Admin mode verses the Learning mode.
You’re able to tell which mode you are in by simply looking at where the menu bar (navigation bar) is located. If the menu bar is along the left side, you are in the Administrator view. If the menu bar (navigation bar) is along the top of the page, it is the learner (or employee) view.
Q: When do the changes go into effect?
A: The new User Interface (UI) will be released on Monday, July 17th, 2023 (dates subject to change).
