+1A huge enhancement to the ILT experience would be to allow new learners to access a recording of the session that has happened in the past. This could be by allowing automated enrollment in a session that has occurred in the past (via link or enrollment rule) or via access to certain training materials for those without session enrollment or another more brilliant way that I am not thinking of.
There seem to have been lots of discussion around this in the Community and at conferences:

+1We do this in two ways.
We are solving it via Option 2, as well. So, for every ILT, we have an E-Learning course. This is creating a bit of a challenge with some internal reporting and some confusion among learners about which course to take.
For Option 1, when you say you keep the session open, do you mean that you have an event with an end date far in the future? We stayed away from that option due to our Outlook integration, initially. But it could be an option going forward.
Either way I think if as part of the ILT Product Re-Design they can solve this issue, I think it would be quite helpful!

We have an ILT that contains a series of optional events that take place over the course of a year. So the session runs from Jan 1 until Dec 31 based on events within it. This solved the ‘event ended no one new can automatically enroll’ functionality. So dropping in a recording makes the archived events available.
TLDR- If we have a series of related events, we do one ILT, one Session and One Event.
As for posting the video, we post them to Vimeo and then link to Docebo. Partially to keep content where we control it ( past bad, pre Docebo LMS experience), but also because we can then reuse it elsewhere and don’t have to worry about Outlook/Teams expirations for archived meetings. Lastly Vimeo is much better at managing bandwidth scaling issues then Docebo, because that’s what they do for a living :-)
This is a massive platform failure.
If we upload a recording, learners should not be blocked from accessing it simply because they did not register before the session occurred. That is unnecessary friction between learners and content developers, and it makes the platform harder to use than it needs to be.
Anyone should be able to register for an ILT course after the fact if the course is still active and there is a recording available to watch. If there are cases where prior registration is required, then provide an option to restrict recording access to previously registered learners. That should be the exception, not the default limitation.
Creating a redundant eLearning course or leaving fake ILT sessions open is not a fix. Those are workarounds, and they:
The platform should support this use case directly. This should not require fake sessions, duplicate courses, or extra manual effort to compensate for a basic access limitation.
