Release Highlights and Benefits
- Seamless User Management with Keycloak: With Keycloak integration, managing user data will be more efficient. We're implementing unique email validation and syncing user data, which simplifies administration and reduces errors.

- Rapid eLearning Enhancements: The platform now stores file sizes for Rapid eLearning modules, which helps with management and performance.
- Improved User Awareness & Customisation: You'll have better control and transparency with new features like notifications for alpha releases. Plus, you can now customise the signature title on CES Test Certificates, giving you more flexibility for branding and official documentation.
- Reporting: No more issues with reports! Performance appraisal and evaluation reports are available and print correctly, and all essential settings are there when you need them. This means you can count on accurate, consistent data every time.
- eLearning & Assessments: The platform is more stable and dependable than ever. We've fixed issues like infinite loading, incorrect error messages, and session problems. You're also able to save assessments without encountering the 'Created By is required' error. These changes ensure a smoother, frustration-free experience for your crew.
- User Management: We've addressed a security vulnerability that allowed unauthorised access, making your data more secure. We've also fixed the bug that prevented you from changing Marlins English test taker IDs, giving you full control over user profiles.

🎉Enhancements
[KEYCLOAK] EMAIL VALIDATION IMPLEMENTED BETWEEN PERSONNEL AND SPECIAL USERS

- Personal card Save action
- Configuration/Security/Accounts
- It also checks for:

- Regular user email conflicts
Note: If an existing email is used for a new special user, a warning message appears and creating a new account will not be allowed
CES TEST CERTIFICATE - NEW SETTING ADDED TO AMEND TITLE OF SIGNATURE
Description: In the configuration, a new setting has been added to allow you to change the title of the signature required for the CES Test Certificate. There is an upper limit of 50 characters.
For example, customers now have the option to change the word ‘assessor’ to any other signature segment, such as ‘Trainer’.
