==Organisation structure enhancements and new features==
 
===Manual Manager Assignment===
== Learning Catalogue ==
<p>The core value of this feature is the ability for HR reps to assign managers to their team members directly and independently to departments and positions.</p>
<p>The [[Catalogue|Learning Catalogue]], also known as ‘Catalogue’, is a new enhancement that is a complete revamp of the course browse and search functionality in Moodle Workplace. It transforms the course discovery experience, ensuring convenience and individualised upskilling, and providing easier access to learning materials.

</p>Learning catalogue allows admins to configure which fields should be displayed and in which order. It also allows for the configuration of the filters.
<p>It comes along with a new backend that will enhance performance, particularly in large Workplace instances.</p>
