Dual Code is committed to continuously improving the HCE and regularly implementing new features with each release. This page shows our release notes, organized by version.

Notifications for Certificates of Completion (Improvement)

When a user completes a course that is configured to issue certificates of completion, a certificate is automatically sent to the user in PDF format via email. Previously, this email was sent directly to the user’s inbox based on their registered email address. With this improvement, the email is now sent through the system’s built-in notification system. This enhancement allows users to opt out of receiving these emails if they prefer not to receive a copy of their certificate via email. Users can always download their certificate at any time from their Learning History. Additionally, the default message has been updated to include a congratulatory note celebrating the user’s achievement.

December 17, 2024 ♦ v4.1.15.1 ♦ HCE-8913

Employee Feedback Not Stored If User Double Clicks on Buttons (Bug Fix)

In the Performance Appraisal System, when a user saves their feedback and double-clicks the confirmation buttons, there are cases where the feedback is saved on the first click but then overwritten with empty values on the second click. This causes the feedback to appear as if it were deleted. This release resolves this issue..

December 13, 2024 ♦ v4.1.15.1 ♦ HCE-8790

Users Are Not Being Assigned to Appraisals (Bug Fix)

A faulty SQL query was preventing assignment rules from being processed when users were assigned to multiple appraisals simultaneously. This issue has now been fixed, and assignment rules are functioning correctly. Note that the problem only affected the assignment process, not the unassignment of users.

December 13, 2024 ♦ v4.1.15.1 ♦ HCE-8858

Invalid “Days to complete” in Performance Appraisal System Can Lead to Errors (Bug Fix)

When the “Days to complete” in the Performance Appraisal System is set to an invalid value, like -1, the system generates an error and the administrator is no longer able to view appraisals. As part of this fix, the field is now being validated to ensure only integers can be entered.

December 13, 2024 ♦ v4.1.15.1 ♦ HCE-8867

Course License Renewal Notifications (New Feature)

This release adds course license renewal notifications, offering users reminders and renewal links for licenses nearing expiration or already expired. Notifications are sent via email and the system's built-in web notifications every Monday, as needed. There are 5 reminders: 60, 15, and 7 days before expiration, on the expiration date, and 7 days after. Please note that individual license purchases for personal use will not trigger notifications. This feature is intended for administrators who purchase courses for others. Administrators can toggle notifications on or off via a link clearly displayed in the email footer..

November 28, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.5 ♦ HCE-8054

License Renewals for Instructor-led Courses (Bug Fix)

In certain situations, users attempting to renew their license for a course with instructor-led sessions would encounter an issue where they were registered for the session but unable to access the rest of the course. As part of this improvement, changes have been made to the license renewal process, ensuring users gain full access to the entire course.

November 28, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.5 ♦ HCE-8658

Non-editing Instructor Can’t View SCORM Reports (Improvement)

Users assigned the role of a non-editing instructor in a course can view reports, while those with the Lead Instructor role have the ability to build and edit courses in addition to viewing reports. Previously, basic instructors did not have access to SCORM reports. With this enhancement, the basic instructor role now includes the capability to view SCORM reports..

November 28, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.5 ♦ HCE-8686

Improved Performance for Manager Compliance Summaries (Improvement)

The learning environment can generate and send compliance summary emails to managers (e.g., supervisors), enabling them to quickly view their team’s compliance status directly from their inbox without logging in. Each email includes a direct link to a detailed report showing all users under their supervision. System Administrators can manage the frequency of these emails or disable them entirely through the System Configuration settings.

Previously, in larger organizations, simultaneous access to the detailed report by dozens or even hundreds of managers could cause performance issues. With this update, the detailed report is now loaded from the archives, significantly enhancing performance - by more than tenfold in some cases.

November 26, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.4 ♦ HCE-8753

Enhanced Deletion Controls and Soft Delete Implementation for Appraisals (Improvement)

To address data loss concerns, several improvements were implemented for performance appraisal management. Previously, appraisal deletions lacked confirmation prompts, log entries, and used a hard deletion process that removed records from the database, creating potential data recovery issues. This update introduces confirmation dialogs for appraisal deletions, ensuring users confirm intent, and adds event logging for traceability. Additionally, appraisals are now "soft deleted" - marked as deleted instead of removed from the database - when feedback has been submitted, enabling potential data recovery. This change aligns appraisal deletions with existing program archiving practices, offering more robust data handling and management.

November 13, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.3 ♦ HCE-6247

Comma Handling in “is one of” Conditions for Program and Cohort Assignment Rules (Bug Fix)

An issue was identified in which program or cohort assignment rules using the “is one of” condition and containing comma-separated values did not save correctly. Rather than treating entries like “Manager, Health Team” as a single value, the system split them into separate values (e.g., "Manager" and "Health Team"). This fix updates the system to allow commas in these fields, ensuring entries are saved as intended.

November 13, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.3 ♦ HCE-8471

Volume Discounts and Thresholds (New Feature)

The “Self enrolment (Advanced)” enrolment method now allows you to define your own volume thresholds and discounts. Organizations that sell courses often establish volume thresholds along with corresponding discounts to encourage bulk purchases. This approach, known as threshold volume discounting, ensures that a discount is only applied once a buyer reaches a designated quantity threshold. For instance, a discounted rate might be offered when an organization buys 100 licenses or more. When configuring these volume thresholds and discounts, sellers have the option to apply the discount as either a percentage reduction (e.g., 10% off) or as a fixed, reduced price per unit (e.g., $10 per license instead of $12). Once a user completes a purchase of licenses, they receive a link or license key. This key can be shared with their team members, allowing them to enroll in the prepaid course seamlessly. This system streamlines access to the course content for larger groups, making it easy for organizations to manage training and education for their teams.

November 5, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-7615

Manage Appraisals Page Timing Out (Bug Fix)

The “Manage Appraisals” page sometimes times out for administrators. This is caused by the “Read Access” column, which in some cases take a long time to load. As cache was introduced to speed up the page, eliminating the time out.

November 5, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8731

Restricted Guest Access to Instructor-led Course Registrations (Bug Fix)

An issue was found where guest users (non-authenticated users) could access courses and register for sessions, even when no guest enrollment method was enabled. This was caused by conflicts with course catalogue filters and autologin settings. The issue stemmed from the filter_facetoface code displaying sign-up options for guests when ‘autologinguest’ was active. A fix has been implemented to ensure that guest users cannot enroll in sessions unless they are logged in.

November 1, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8175

Improved Facilitator Notifications and Calendar Event Integration (Improvement)

Previously, facilitators did not receive specific notifications or iCal events for their scheduled sessions, making it difficult to track their teaching schedule and understand calendar conflicts. This has now been resolved with the implementation of three types of facilitator notifications, including .ics file invitations. Facilitators will now receive event invites directly in their calendars and be notified when they are added or removed from a session, or if important details about the session change, like the room or location.

Learn more here: Managing Facilitators
November 1, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8492

Immediate Compliance Status Update for Program Course List Changes (Improvement)

An issue was identified where students who were previously marked as compliant in a program did not update to "Not compliant" when a new course was added, until an overnight task ran. Now, when a course is added to or removed from a program, the compliance status updates immediately. This ensures that students are correctly marked as "Not compliant" or "Compliant" without waiting for an overnight task, providing more accurate and timely program completion status.

November 1, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8562

Corrected Course Completion Logic for Mixed Condition Requirements (Bug Fix)

An issue was discovered where users did not receive course completion as expected when the requirements included both "Activity completion" and "Learning record in another course" conditions, even when meeting "any" of the conditions was sufficient. This was due to recertification logic that incorrectly required all activities to be completed, preventing course completion from being awarded. The logic has been revised to ensure users receive course completion when any of the specified conditions are met.

Learn more here: Tracking Completion
November 1, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8646

Removed Users Reappearing in Sessions (Bug Fix)

An issue was identified where a user removed from a session would reappear after attendance was taken, despite not being re-added manually. This occurred when a session was created in a past month and students were marked as fully attended before removal. The log inaccurately showed a "user graded" event even though the user did not appear to be re-added. This has been resolved so that once a user is removed from a session, taking attendance will no longer add them back, ensuring accurate session management.

November 1, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8638

Enhanced Flexibility in Appraisal Manager Assignment and Removal (Bug Fix)

Supervisors faced an issue where they could assign another supervisor to an appraisal but were unable to unassign them afterward. This update ensures that supervisors who have the capability to assign managers to an appraisal can also unassign them. The solution involved modifying the method that generates the list of supervisors to include all currently assigned managers, allowing proper management of appraisal assignments.

November 1, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.2 ♦ HCE-8668

Improved Handling of End-of-Month Course Expirations (Improvement)

When courses are completed on the last day of a month, the expiration date could be incorrect due to variations in the number of days in the current or following month. For instance, a course completed on October 31 with a one-month validity would expire on December 1 instead of the expected November 30. Previously, expiration dates were shifted to the next month when it did not contain the same day. The updated calculation now correctly manages end-of-month completions, ensuring expiration dates align as expected, even when months have different lengths.

Oct 23, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.1 ♦ HCE-8685

Auto-Detect Encoding for User Uploads (New Feature)

Previously, when uploading users, administrators were required to manually select the file encoding (e.g., UTF-8), which could be confusing, as users may not always know their file’s encoding. To simplify this process, we’ve added an "Auto detect" option to the "Encoding" dropdown for the auto upload and manual upload user functions. This option is now the default for new uploads, automatically detecting the correct character encoding without requiring users to choose from a long list of options. If you are using scheduled jobs, please note that you will need to update them to use this new option.

October 18, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.1 ♦ HCE-8583

Submissions Health Check to Monitor and Resolve Unreviewed Course Activities (New Feature)

A new report has been implemented to help System Administrators efficiently manage high volumes of assignment submissions. This report allows System Administrators to generate a consolidated list of unreviewed or ungraded submissions for both the Assignment and Supporting Documentation activities across all courses. The list includes direct links to each submission, making it easier for System Administrators to review, approve, and grade submissions. The report is accessible through the System Health section (under Site Administration > System Health).

October 18, 2024 ♦ v4.1.14.1 ♦ HCE-8357

Mlang Tags Appear in Calendar Invites for F2F Sessions with Microsoft Teams (Bug Fix)

The calendar invite sent to learners who register for a Face-to-Face (F2F) session with a Microsoft Teams activity was displaying unnecessary "mlang" tags, causing confusion in the event details. This issue has been resolved, and calendar invites now display correctly without the tags, ensuring a clean and clear invitation for learners.

Error When Creating F2F Sessions with Long Microsoft Teams Details (Bug Fix)

When setting up a new Face-to-Face (F2F) session using Microsoft Teams as the video conferencing option, a database write exception can occur if the combined length of the Teams meeting details and session location exceeds the allowed limit. This update addresses the issue by modifying how the information is stored in the database.

Enhancements to AI Question Generator (Improvement)

The AI question generator has been enhanced to provide a more tailored and effective learning experience. It can now automatically calculates the appropriate number of questions based on the length of the provided text, ensuring optimal coverage of the material. The system can also now generate true/false questions in an 80/20 ratio, with approximately 20% being true/false questions and 80% being multiple-choice, creating a balanced assessment approach. Additionally, each question is now accompanied by specific feedback, guiding users through the correct answers and explaining why their selected responses were incorrect. This improvement helps reinforce learning and deepens the user’s understanding of the content.

September 19, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8549

Incorrect Certificate Issue Date Due to Race Condition (Bug Fix)

In some cases, in-course certificates of completion were being issued with the completion date from a previous learning record instead of the most recent one, due to a "race condition." This issue occurred when learners with historical course completion records, imported during data migration, completed a course a second time. Upon clicking the simple certificate activity, the certificate displayed the date of their old learning record instead of the new one. As part of this software fix, if the simple certificate activity is set to require a "learning record exists" condition, the system will now wait for the new learning record to be created before issuing the certificate. It is recommended that instructors and administrators use system-level certificates of completion whenever possible for more accurate record-keeping.

September 19, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8390

System Health Notifications for Important System Checks (Improvement)

A new scheduled task has been introduced to improve "System Health" notifications. When a system health check changes from "OK" to a "Warning" or "Information" status, such as when the system detects incorrect SCORM settings, a notification will be sent to System Administrators. This ensures that administrators are promptly informed of important system health changes. Notifications are sent on the 1st day of the month in the user’s preferred language and are triggered only once when the status changes. These alerts help prevent or resolve potential issues before they escalate.

September 18, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-7784

Enhanced Email Transparency and Unsubscribe Option (Improvement)

The system distinguishes between mandatory notifications, such as those requiring users to complete essential training, and optional ones, like post-course survey requests. To improve compliance with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) and enhance users' ability to manage their email preferences, a footer will be added to most outgoing emails. This footer will include identification details for both your organization and Dual Code, along with an unsubscribe option for non-mandatory emails. This update does not add or remove notifications from the system, nor does it alter users' ability to opt out of certain emails. It simply provides greater transparency about the email source and makes it easier for users to adjust their notification preferences.

September 18, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8334

Learner Receives an Email from an Assignment with an Invalid Link (Bug Fix)

When an instructor gives feedback on an assignment, the learner receives an email with a link that previously directed them to a page for entering grades and feedback, which was only accessible to instructors. With this software update, the link now directs learners to a page where they can view the feedback provided to them.

September 15, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8504

Direct Link to a Course Does Not Always Work When the User is Not Already Logged In (Bug Fix)

In certain cases, especially in a multi-site environment, when a user clicks a direct link to a course while not logged in, they are taken to the login page. After logging in, they would encounter an exception error and be redirected to the main site instead of the intended course. With this bug fix, users are now properly redirected to the course after logging in without encountering any exceptions.
September 12, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8331

Appraisal Reassignment and Feedback Management After Supervisor Deletion (Improvement)

When a supervisor completes an employee's appraisal and their account is later deleted (e.g., due to leaving the organization), it can cause visibility and reassignment issues. As part of this improvement, if a supervisor is deleted, their feedback will be marked as deleted unless they had completed and locked the appraisal.

In cases where a different supervisor completed the appraisal, the feedback remains visible, and the new supervisor can take over. If the deleted supervisor completed the appraisal but did not lock it, the status will revert to ‘awaiting supervisor’ feedback. If the appraisal was locked by the deleted supervisor, the feedback remains accessible, with no changes to the appraisal status.

These updates improve the continuity of appraisals when supervisors are reassigned or leave the organization.

September 9, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8119

Email Notification for User Removal from In-Progress F2F Sessions (Improvement)

When an administrator removes a user from a face-to-face (F2F) session that is in progress but not yet completed, the system will now send a notification email to the user. Previously, an email was only sent if the user was removed before the session started. With this update, users will be informed of their removal regardless of whether the session has begun, ensuring timely communication and minimizing confusion about their session status. This enhancement helps maintain better transparency and user awareness throughout the session process.

September 6, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8404

Supervisor Appraisal Status Summary Notifications (New Feature)

Supervisors will now receive status summary notifications for employee appraisals that are coming due or overdue. System administrators can modify or disable these notifications by adjusting the frequency in the System Configuration settings. By default, the notifications are sent on the 1st of each month. Each summary will provide supervisors with an overview of their assigned appraisals, categorized by form, including the total number of appraisals, those coming due, and those overdue. The notification also includes a link for supervisors to view a filtered list of appraisals that are due or overdue in the Manage Appraisals page.

September 3, 2024 ♦ v4.1.12.3 ♦ HCE-8424

Supervisor Access to Overdue Employee Appraisals Without Initial Feedback (New Feature)

Previously, the Performance Appraisal System required supervisors to wait for employees to complete and submit their initial appraisal feedback, which could delay the review process. With this enhancement, supervisors will now see an "overdue" status in the ‘State’ column of the ‘Manage Appraisals’ summary. Additionally, the ‘Fill out appraisal’ icon will be enabled for overdue appraisals. When a supervisor clicks on the icon, they will be notified that the employee has not submitted feedback and asked to confirm whether they want to proceed without it. If they choose to proceed, the appraisal form will open for the supervisor to provide their feedback. The employee’s draft feedback, including competency rankings and comments, will remain private and inaccessible to the supervisor. The employee’s draft will be saved, allowing them to resume their feedback later from where they left off.

Notifications when Patches Become Available (Improvement)

The system distinguishes between updates and patches. When an update becomes available, your learning environment is automatically scheduled for to be updated. However, when a patch is released, it is not automatically scheduled. Instead, patches are included in the next update, which will be automatically scheduled when it becomes available. As part of this enhancement, System Administrators now receive a notification when a patch is available. The notification prompts administrators to review the release notes and, if the patch is beneficial, to manually schedule an update to their system. If a patch is immediately applied, it will be automatically included with the next scheduled update.

PAS Administrators Cannot Manage Scales (Bug Fix)

According to the Performance Appraisal System (PAS) documentation, PAS Administrators are responsible for defining and managing scales throughout the system. With this software update, PAS Administrators can now perform these tasks as intended. It's important to note that the scales used by the PAS are the same as those utilized by the LMS. Consequently, a user with the PAS Administrator role now has the ability to manage scales across the entire system, including defining new scales and editing existing ones.

Users Cannot Place Themselves on a Waiting List Without First Enrolling in the Course (Improvement)

When a course includes a face-to-face activity, a placeholder or special word can be used to list all sessions in the course description, accompanied by a "Sign Up" button. Users can click this button to both enroll in the course and sign up for a specific session. However, this method may not always work when the session is full, even if overbooking (waiting lists) is enabled. With this software fix, users can now sign up for sessions that are full, provided overbooking is enabled, using the "Sign Up" button in the course description.

Expiration Dates for Courses With an Expiration Date That Is “Rounded Up” May Be Extended by One Month (Bug Fix)

If a course is configured to round up the expiration date and also set to expire the learning record based on the previous expiration date, the new learning record's expiration (after recertification) may be extended by an additional month. For example, if a user had an expiration date of October 1st and completed the course on time, next year’s expiration could be November 1st instead of October 1st. With this software fix, the expiration date will now correctly display as October 1st as expected.

Courses with Multiple Activities Set to Expire by "Year" or "Month" May Not Issue Learning Records Under Specific Circumstances (Bug Fix)

When a learning record is set to expire after a specific period (e.g., 365 days), the system ensures that the user completes all mandatory activities within that timeframe before issuing a learning record. For instance, if a learning record expires after 365 days, the user must have completed all required activities within the past 365 days. If another unit of measure was used (e.g., months or years), the system disregarded the unit when verifying completion criteria. For example, setting "12 months" incorrectly required completion within 12 days. This software fix now ensures that the system correctly considers the specified unit (days, months, or years) when issuing learning records.

The Completion Status report only shows enrolled users. However, the status of certain users sometimes showed the “Not enrolled” icon. This was caused by the fact the the enrolment start time for the user(s) in question was set to 0 when using a specific enrolment method and under specific circumstances. As part of this software fix, we ensure that the enrolment start time is set correctly using the given scenario that was causing the issue.

Programs are capable of sending notifications to users based on numerous events. Generally speaking, they support “tokens”, which are placeholders that an administrator can insert in the notification that gets replaced by an actual value when the notification gets sent (like a user’s first and last name for example). The “User is registered in the program” did not support such tokens. As part of this improvements, numerous tokens have been added to the “User is registered in the program” program notification.

Mandatory Courses that Expire by Lapse Time May Not Always Show a Due Date (Improvement)

Courses assigned via programs are considered to be mandatory. There is a setting in each program labelled “Days to complete” to set a due date for when employees need to complete these mandatory courses when they are first enrolled in them. We recommend that administrators set “Days to complete” to a reasonable value, like 30 days for example, but the system does allow an administrator to NOT set a deadline by entering a value of 0. When doing so, the Compliance Overview block lists the courses as being mandatory for the user, but doesn’t specify a due date. As part of this improvement, if (and only if) “Days to complete” is set to 0, and if (and only if) the course has an expiration date on it, then the due date shown on the Compliance Overview block will match the expiration date set in the course’s settings. In other words, if a user is enrolled in a course on May 1st via a program, the “Days to complete” in this program is set to 0, and the course’s learning record is set to expire every 365 days, then the Compliance Overview block will now say that the due date for the course in question is April 30th of the following year. But if “Days to complete” is set to 30, then the due date will be May 30 for newly enrolled users. Note that this behavior always existed for courses that expire by date. This improvements implements a consistent behaviour for courses that expire by lapse time.

Activity Completion Data is Not Being Reset in this Unique Scenario (Bug Fix)

This issue appears in a very unique scenario. A course is configured with a condition of “Expiration by date”. The learner has a valid learning record. An instructor or administrator then unlocks the course completion settings and adds a new activity to the course completion requirements. The user already has a valid learning record so when they access the course, they see the banner “Congratulations. You have completed the course”. However, the learner has not actually completed the new mandatory activity, so the status of the course (and indirectly each activity within this course) is inconsistent.

Session Attendance Taken Prior to the HCE 4.1 Upgrade Might Switch State Following an Upgrade to HCE 4.1 (Bug Fix)

This issue is only applicable to timesheets entered using version 3.9 of the learning environment, and then re-saved using version 4.1 of the learning environment. Under certain circumstances, if a user was marked as having fully attended a face-to-face session using version 3.9 of the learning environment, and an administrator then modified the timesheet (e.g. entered attendance for other users and then saved the timesheet again) using version 4.1 of the learning environment, the status for certain users might change from “Fully attended” to “Partially attended”. The user’s however would retain their learning record, but some reports may indicate that the user only partially attended the session.

Course Overview Block Doesn’t Always Report 100% Completion Even Though the User Has a Learning Record (Improvement)

The Course Overview block reports on a user’s progress in each course. For example, if a course contains 5 activities and the user completed 3 of them, the block would report a 60% completion. There are circumstances however when a user can receive a learning record without completing all of the activities. For example, a bilingual course that contains a lesson in English and French would only require the learner to complete one of the two lessons. After completing the English lesson, the user would receive a learning record, but the Course Overview block would report 50% completion because the user did not complete the French lesson. In another example, a user who has been granted an equivalency for the course would continue to show a 0% completion rate because they did not technically complete any of the activities in the learning environment. As part of this improvement, the calculation of the progress in the Course Overview block has been refactored such that if the user has a valid learning record, then the progress will always show 100% completion.
