Totara 19: What’s Changed?
Totara 19 simplifies learning platforms and makes them more effective. It’s not about flashy features—it’s about fixing what matters. Here’s what’s new:
1. Learn and Engage Together
Managing content and creating meaningful learning experiences no longer require separate systems. Totara 19 merges the LMS and LXP into one platform. Learners have a seamless space to learn, engage, and grow. Less hassle, more focus on what matters—learning.
2. Navigation That Works for You
The navigation bar has moved to the side, replacing the top menu. It’s customizable—you decide the labels, icons, and structure that make sense for your team. Expand it when you need details, and collapse it when you don’t. This change reduces clicks and makes getting to key areas like workspaces or the catalogue quicker and easier.
3. A Better Catalogue
Finding what you need shouldn’t feel like a treasure hunt. Totara 19’s catalogue now has unified search and filters that make it intuitive and fast. New admin tools let you reorder content effortlessly, while synchronized tags and topics provide seamless navigation across the platform. Browsing for learning opportunities is no longer a chore—it’s productive and straightforward.
4. Workspaces for Teams
Collaboration in workspaces is easier now. You can assign multiple owners to a workspace, so managing and sharing responsibilities is more flexible. Courses can be added directly to playlists within the workspace, streamlining curation. Everything, from the workspaces to their tags, is now searchable in the catalogue. It’s a feature that genuinely improves team collaboration and efficiency.
5. Certifications Simplified
Certifications can be a headache, but Totara 19 has taken the pain out of the process. The new interface is clean and easy to navigate. You can duplicate or clone certifications quickly, saving time. Manual completion dates are easier to track, giving you more control over compliance monitoring.
6. Cleaner Program Design
Programs have been redesigned with simplicity in mind. The new interface is intuitive and user-friendly. APIs for HR integration are updated, ensuring smoother data syncing between systems. The enrolment process now includes built-in approval workflows, so everything from start to finish is more efficient.
Why Totara 19 Matters
Totara 19 isn’t about adding features for its own sake. It’s about fixing real problems. It streamlines the tools you use daily, eliminates unnecessary complexity, and helps you focus on what matters—delivering impactful learning.
