With the most recent update to Adobe Captivate Prime, Adobe has introduced Learning Paths. Originally Learning Programs, Learning Paths offer the learner a clear direction in their training and bundle courses that complement each other to achieve a larger training goal. Learning Paths can be customized by create new sections and labeling each section with a title, offering you the ability to breakdown the training to in bite sized self-paced chunks. Each Learning Path can be set up to make sections mandatory for completion of a set skill. The update adding Learning Paths is also now reflected in the Fluidic Player. There are newly built icons showing learners all available paths in the training through the table of contents (TOC) offering learners the ability to jump from one training to another.

To enable the new Learning Paths feature you will need to go to your Settings area and go to the General Page. From here you will see an option to enable the extended capabilities of Learning Paths. Once this is enabled Authors/Admins will be able to access all features listed above. (to note, you can not change the option once it is enabled)

With the addition to Learning Paths, changes have been made to Reporting. Now reports pulled from Captivate Prime and integrated Connectors (Salesforce, Power BI and Marketo) will include 3 now columns to show Learning Path, Path ID and Path Language. A Session Summary Report has also been added. This report contains all data around a learners Virtual and Classroom session and can be pulled from specific data range fields.

There are a few notable Big Fixes in this update including stability for Zoom and BlueJeans Meetings, quality of life improvements over reporting and removing trainings. Finally increasing the catalogs size up to 50.
