This week in the Totara Community we’ve got two updated courses available, a new guide, webinars, and we’re asking for your help with research. 

Brand new Community guide

What do you think about using Totara? The 2021 satisfaction survey is currently open so if you’ve got some thoughts on using Totara please share your perspective so we can continue to improve. You can complete the survey in as little as a couple of minutes. 

Help research

Many of you use the Totara Help site to make the most of your Totara products. We’re planning to make some improvements to the site, and we’d love your input. We are looking for some new and experienced Totara users to speak to one of our Research and Innovation team to do some user testing. The call would take around 45 minutes, and you’d be helping out the whole Community of users who use the site! So whether you’re brand new to Totara or a seasoned veteran, we’d love your input! No experience of the existing Help site is necessary. If you’d like to be involved or have further questions, please contact Kevin Smith at kevin.smith@totaralearning.com.
