v5.19 Release Notes
🗒️ Summary
Version 5.19 | 01/08/2021
With this version of Awato we're beginning to introduce regional education and experience exploration into our career pathing platform! We've been hard at work mapping various credentialing opportunities and with this update, students will be able to explore CTE programs, multiple post-secondary education providers, licenses, and more. Currently, our mapping covers credentialing programs from state of NH, but we have already begun expanding our reach! As an important note: customers must opt in to other providers' programs appearing in their own Awato system
Heading into the future, we are looking to implement regional work opportunities, improve our regional content exploration experience, add in new credentialing opportunities such as Dual Credit programs, and begin implementing more powerful reporting tools.
🎉 What’s new
- A new My Path view that can be found on the My Paths page. This page will display the path steps, roll up information, and allow students to mark steps as complete as they progress through their path
When opted in to the new Regional Credentials features:
- A new page called Find Opportunities. This page displays all of the regional education and experiences from real organizations
- The Explore page will still display careers and degrees. The degrees will be "general" subjects that direct students to specific providers of the degree on the Find Opportunities page
- A method for users to explore, filter and Career and Technical Education programs within Awato
- A way for students to explore post secondary degrees provided by multiple organizations
- An ability for students to view and explore required licenses and certifications for careers
💪 What’s better

- Improved the Awato invite email text to be more cohesive and include support information
