Sign-Off Checklist Lessons — skills competency checklists with evaluator sign-off

Training has a new lesson type for skills a learner cannot sign off on their own. Authors write a checklist of sections and items, and Training admins, course Instructors, a new per-course Evaluator role or, if the lesson allows it, the learner's manager sign each item as Met, Unmet or N/A. Each sign-off records the signer, their job title, the time and the way the skill was checked, using a list of methods your organization edits. Evaluators work from a Checklists to sign queue on desktop or phone, or sign one item for up to 100 learners at once during a skills fair. Earlier sign-offs are kept when an item is signed again, a sign-off can be withdrawn with a reason, and a finished checklist can be reopened. The sign-offs appear on the learner's transcript PDF and in a Checklist sign-offs report with CSV export, and can be checked or recorded through Ask AI.

Use case: A hospital educator runs an annual skills fair and signs off the infusion-pump competency for forty nurses in one sitting, and each nurse's transcript shows who validated the skill, how and when.

Coggno Courses in the Partner Catalog — off-the-shelf compliance training courses in your LMS

Coggno courses now join the other content partners in the Training Partner Catalog. An administrator licenses a Coggno course the same way as any partner course and adds it to a lesson. It then plays full-page in Training's own course player on desktop and phone, and when the learner finishes, the lesson is marked complete. When Coggno updates a course, the new version reaches every lesson that uses it.

Use case: An HR manager who needs harassment-prevention training for a new state licenses a ready-made Coggno course and assigns it to employees there, without building the course or opening a separate learning system.

Available in: Training → Course Licenses → Partner Catalog

Leave Payouts on the Payroll File — final pay leave settlement and PTO cash-out in payroll

Payroll Prep reports now include every leave payout approved in the pay period as its own Leave Payout line, with hours and pay. This covers a leaver's final leave settlement, cash-outs of banked time, and year-end or expiry payouts from Leave Management. Payouts count toward total pay but not hours worked. A person who has left is kept on the file when they have a payout, even with no timesheet in the period, and a payout approved after the report was prepared is listed separately so it is not missed. The Leave Payout line also appears in the CSV, PDF and JSON exports and in the Payroll assistant.

Use case: A payroll administrator closing the period sees a departing employee's unused vacation as a Leave Payout line on the pay file, so their final paycheck includes what they are owed.

Available in: Payroll Prep → Payroll report → Leave Payout, with payouts from Leave Management
