May 28, 2026: The New Exam Overview

New Features

Exam Center Redesigned ⭐

You can now manage exams, grades, and your students’ study progress through a completely redesigned exam center — with clearer tables, detailed module overviews, and optimized grading workflows.

Key features:

Module overview page: View module status, grades, descriptions, and exam dates at a glance for each student
Exam attempt tracking: Display detailed attempt overviews with status, submission date, and grade breakdown per student
Exam notes & reviews: Add and edit exam notes and reviews directly from the table via an improved rich-text dialog
Grading workflow: Grade students faster — with an updated grading interface for standard, pass/fail, binary, and participation assessments
Exam requests: Manage student exam requests in a dedicated tab within the exam attempt view
Status overview: Recognize the effective exam status at a glance — with clear labels and percentage grade ranges
Exam publishing: Improved publishing process with better validation and error handling

How it works: Navigate to the exam area of any course to see the new tables and views. Click a student’s module in the study plan to open the new module overview.

Smart Documents & Self-Service

Users can now generate documents themselves via a new self-service feature. The document editor has been extensively expanded — with custom field placement, free-text annotations, and a document history.

How it works: Administrators can configure self-service document templates in settings. Users then find available documents in their documents area and can generate them directly. The document editor now supports insert and edit modes in the toolbar.

Application Management & Question Catalog

The application system has been completely overhauled — with a central question catalog, reusable question blocks, a drag-and-drop form builder, and an improved application workflow including early registration and automatic saving.

How it works: Go to the Apply program area in your OrgHub. Use the new question catalog tab to manage your question pool. When creating application forms, you can drag and drop catalog blocks. Applicants now benefit from progressive saving and early registration.

Learning Path & Instructor View

Course instructors now have access to content block previews, survey analytics, and extended table actions for more efficient management of learning materials.

How it works: Open a course’s content blocks to see the new preview feature, bulk actions, and survey analytics. The learning path editing table also offers new column options and an improved layout.

Cohort Support in Scheduling

You can now assign cohorts (student groups) to appointments and use them as a resource in SmartPlan — making planning for specific groups easier.

How it works: Open SmartPlan and use the new cohorts section in the resource manager to add cohorts. When creating appointments, you can now select cohorts as participants. The auto-planner also supports selecting a primary cohort.

Extended Permissions & Access Packages

Administrators can now create reusable permission packages that bundle multiple access rights, and assign managed roles with fine-grained, entity-specific permissions.

How it works: Go to user management and open a user’s Access tab. There you can assign access packages and managed roles with specific scopes for individual courses or organizational units.

Impact Preview for Assessment Changes

Before saving changes to assessment schemes or academic rulesets, you now see a preview of how many students and which areas are affected — for informed decisions.

How it works: When editing an assessment scheme or ruleset version, the system automatically shows an impact overview before saving, including the number of affected students.

The calendar sidebar has been completely overhauled — with an improved date picker, a clearer course selection with icons, and better cohort filters for more intuitive scheduling.

How it works: Open the calendar to see the redesigned sidebar with the new date picker, improved filters, and optimized calendar view creation.

Grades & Status in the Study Plan

The study plan table now shows grade and module status columns, so each student’s academic standing is visible at a glance.

How it works: Open any student’s study plan to see the new columns for grade, module status, and election status directly in the table.

Image Upload for Content Blocks

You can now upload images directly when creating or editing content blocks — with support for different display sizes.

How it works: When adding or editing an image content block in a course, use the new upload field to upload images from your device. Choose between normal and expanded display.

French Language Support

The platform is now available in French, and the Spanish translations have been updated for higher accuracy.

How it works: Go to your language settings and select French as your preferred language.

Improvements

Persistent Table Templates

Your saved table templates now stay active when navigating between pages — you no longer need to reapply them every time.

Smoother Invitation Flow

Joining a new organization via an invitation link now works more reliably, with correct redirects and access setup.

Automatic Study Plan Update

When a module is removed from a curriculum, the change is now automatically applied to the study plans of affected students.

Improved Availability Requests

The availability requests view now also correctly shows expired requests and offers clearer date navigation.

Better Content Block Pagination

Tables with content blocks now handle page navigation more smoothly, including improved behavior for empty groups.

Improved Appointment Creator

The appointment creation process is now faster with clearer fields and better handling of participant selection.
