Changelog - 8/18/2025

πŸš€ New Features

  • Student Self-Reported Hours: We've launched a new Work-Based Learning (WBL) type that empowers students to self-report their hours for experiences like community service and job shadows. This gives students more ownership and simplifies tracking for everyone.

  • AI Letter of Recommendation Builder: Save time and craft compelling letters with our new AI-assisted builder for teachers and counselors. It's designed to help you create personalized letters of recommendation quickly and easily.

  • System-Wide Communication Report: A powerful new report allows you to view and export all communications between students and other users across the entire platform for improved oversight. Learn how to use the report here.

  • Student Documents Report: Easily monitor the status of all student documents with a new report. It functions just like the employer documents report, giving you a comprehensive overview of who has submitted what.

  • Localized Occupation Data: To give students the most relevant career information, we've embedded localized occupational data (like salary and demand) directly into occupation profiles for select states.

  • CTE Schedule Field: You can now indicate if a student is a morning, afternoon, or full-day CTE student with a new field on their record.
