2 updatesIntroducing Workforce Intelligence dashboard
Workforce Intelligence provides a unified, interactive dashboard for leaders to explore workforce capabilities, spot skill gaps, track learning impact, and plan succession without relying on manual reports or queries. All key workforce signals—verified skills, simulation outcomes, learning progress, role coverage, and engagement—are consolidated into drill-down views and visualizations designed for HR, L&D, and business leaders to answer talent and readiness questions in seconds.
More precise control and better quality in simulation design
Studio now offers simplified templates for business and technical document simulations, a clearer Simulation Task Editor, and a more targeted AI assistant to refine specific actors, tasks, and criteria. Customizable evaluation checks and an improved generation pipeline produce streamlined simulations whose content, complexity, and scoring more closely match the design intent, helping learning teams and managers deliver higher-quality practice experiences faster.
