We've just released some major improvements to the learner creation and enrollment process to address inconsistencies in the user interface and terminology used across the platform. 

Terminology Changes

We've made a number of refinements to the terminology used when adding and enrolling new users in the platform. 

Sharing a course

Share is a generic term used when sharing a course. There are a number of specific ways that a course can be shared as outlined below. 

Enroll or Enrollment describes a method of sharing a course that requires a learner to have an active Coassemble account. If a learner is enrolled into a course, their progress will be tracked and can be viewed in a report. 

Enrolling via email, with a link, or with an embed code will result in an active learner in your workspace. 

Learners can be added to a group, and if that group has courses added to it, the learner will be enrolled into those courses. 

Sharing a course with a preview link allows you to share a course without requiring the recipient to create an account as course progress is not tracked. The most common use-case for a preview link is sharing a course with a colleague for review. 

Key Functionality Changes

Key changes to the functionality are as follows: 

• If you enrol a learner into a course from the users page, you will always see a preview of the email that will be sent to your learners. 
• You can now get a preview link from the course share modal
• A new 'Invited' status has been added to distinguish between learners who have been added to your workspace but not enrolled into a course (pending), and users invited to your workspace, enrolled into a course, but not yet completed their profile. 
• The ability to edit the first and last names of learners during the invitation process (only available on the Pro or Premium plans)
