== Report Builder Audiences and Schedules ==
== Learning Catalogue ==
 
<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>This release includes a new interface for Audiences and Schedules, making possible to grant access to report based on cohorts and system roles in addition to the audiences based on Departments and Positions.</p>
 
<p>Schedules can now be defined more easily just by selecting a report audience.</p>
