Oracle Learn Cloud

Oracle Taleo Learn Cloud Service is a comprehensive solution for delivering, tracking, managing, and reporting on all types of formal and informal learning. Users have easy access to learning through a single platform for online, classroom, virtual, and on-the-job training, as well as assessments, blended learning, social learning and self-reported training. Organizations can design a truly tailored user experience with complete control over all aspects of the user interface.

Supervisor Roles

In 16B we will introduce Supervisor Roles to help Administrators manage ‘My Team’ permissions in a single place, reducing the administrator overhead of managing the permission on each supervisor.

The feature allows you to:

• Define as many roles as needed
• Define a default Supervisor Role and have it automatically applied on all newly created Supervisor Accounts
• Map Supervisors to multiple roles

Benefits:

• Centralized Supervisor permission management
• Reduced administration overhead

TBE/Learn User Sync (Learn REST API)

In 16B we will be further expanding our Suite with the delivery of a productized TBE (Taleo Business Edition) to Learn User Sync to manage creating and updating users in Learn.

With this integration you will be able to programmatically:

• Create new users in Learn
• Update existing users standard and custom fields
• Create organization structure with Supervisor to Subordinate mappings

Benefits:

• Substantial reduction of need for additional paid for technical services
• Streamlined sync of TBE employees into Learn with standardized API’s

LearnCenter Course Player

With 16B the LearnCenter Course Player emerges from it’s BETA state and is now feature complete for SCORM 1.2 courses. The LearnCenter Course Player works exclusively with the Widgets and will support new HTML5, as well as legacy, content and deep linking to a course. The player will launch courses embedded (no pop-up’s) from the Learning Plan, Transcript, and My Task widgets as well as the new Search and Skills widgets. The LearnCenter Course Player uses “Responsive Design”, which we also used to develop the Widget feature. The term “Responsive Design” means that the player can easily scale to an appropriate size based on the viewing area of the device being used (PC monitor, laptop, tablet, or phone).

LearnCenter Course Player Enhancements include:

• Smart Navigation,
• This innovative feature will display to the user the player next and back buttons only when appropriate, keeping the user from being confused on when to use course navigation and player navigation.
• Deep linking to a course from external systems
• Updated user experience for content workflows:
• Multiple Attempts
• Expired Attempts
• Expired Completions
• eSignatures
• Pre-Test and Post-Test assessments

• Course Completion page
• Updated preview mode that is configurable and clearly displays to the use when they are viewing the course in a non-tractable mode.
• Managing course with and height at the import and course properties.

NOTE: The Standard Course Player will continue to function and be supported for the foreseeable future.

Launching the New Course from a mobile device

The new LearnCenter Course Player is part of the overall Learn mobile strategy and supports next generation HTML5 content with responsive design and plays from mobile devices so the user is not limited to their desktop and can complete training anywhere.

Launching the New Course Player

The new LearnCenter Course Player launches the SCORM 1.2 course from the Widget directly from List View to reduce mouse clicks for the user.

Click to launch the LearnCenter Course Player, the course details page will open automatically with the course on the first page of the player workflow.

The content opens as embedded within the Widget, similar to other modern Internet video services like YouTube™ with the ability to view in full page mode.

Configuration Options

You can activate the LearnCenter Course Player in a new LearnCenter Course Player section of the Course Options page.

Select Yes to make it active for the current LearnCenter, No to deactivate it (use the standard player), or Inherited to inherit the setting of the parent LearnCenter. By default, No is selected for all LearnCenters.
