Hello Docebo Community! šŸ‘‹

The Learner Journey team is hard at work to redefine the Instructor-Led Training (ILT) experience. Our goal? To reduce administrative overhead and make the learning path as smooth as possible for everyone involved.

We’ve listened to your feedback through this Product Design GroupĀ and we are excited to share what’s coming to your platform!

Ā 

šŸ—ŗļø What’s on the Roadmap

Here is a look at the key pillars of our upcoming releases:

  • System-Managed Session Status (H1 2026): We are introducing an automated state for ILT sessions (Active, Ended). The system will derive the status directly from dates and events, displaying it clearly with badges and filterable columns for Admins, Instructors, and Learners. This ensures consistent behavior and better traceability across the board.

    Ā 

  • Cancel Sessions, Keep Accuracy (H1 2026): Soon, Admins and Power Users will be able to cancel a session instead of deleting it. This preserves all enrollments and historical data for reporting, while marking the session as "Canceled" to remove it from upcoming operational views.

    Ā 

  • Self-Enrollment in Multiple Sessions (H2 2026+): We are breaking the "one-session-per-course" limit. Learners will finally be able to independently join multiple or recurring sessions of the same ILT course, aligning self-enrollment with admin capabilities and significantly reducing manual work for you.

    Ā 

Ā 

The Vision: We want to turn the complexity of managing live training into a seamless, automated process that lets you focus on what really matters: the learning content.

That last one is a real winner. Being able to create topic based sessions with multiple event times within them and then letting a user pick the times that work from each session is a GAMECHANGER!

Ā 

Can IĀ set ILT completion based on the number ofĀ sessions completed or the total number of events completed across all sessionsĀ instead of completion of aĀ single session?Ā

The cancel sessions feature would be amazing! We rarely truly ā€œcancelā€ a session, most often postponed. Being able to preserve the historical information until it is rescheduled without learners seeing itĀ would be extremely helpful.

I am thrilled with the ability to cancel sessions.Ā  This is huge for us.Ā Ā 

We are still really hoping for a more direct way to manage sessions and session/event enrollments on the admin side.Ā  Currently, it is soooo many steps to unenroll a user from one session and into another; the user can do it in one function - select a new session.Ā  But, for admins, it is two very long workflows.Ā Ā 

Additionally, I’d like to be able to manage sessions in bulk.Ā  Having to manage sessions course by course is very laborious.Ā  It would be great if Sessions had their own management area separate from Courses...kind of like Learning Plans and Courses...relatedĀ but managed independently.Ā  A CSV upload for SessionĀ enrollment and unenrollment would be appreciated as well.Ā Ā Ā Ā 

I am hoping that the ability for learners to enroll into multiple sessions is optional - a toggle on/off for the platform or a checkbox at the course level.Ā  We do NOT want our learners enrolling into multiple sessions of the same course.Ā  It takes up seats when they are only going to attend once.Ā  Holding seats in multiple sessions really impacts our fill and attendance rates and makes it difficult to predict volume rates for instructor contracts.Ā Ā Ā

Question. Will the Session Status be visible in the User Personal Summary table for Sessions?Ā 

We have asked repeatedly that the Attendance Status be displayed in that screen because the Enrollment Status is confusing.Ā  If a student is Absent, the Session status is never changed...it stays ā€œIn Progressā€ but that is inaccurate as they will never be able to move to ā€œCompletedā€ because the session is past.Ā  If it was Attendance Status reflected, it would be sooo much cleaner.Ā  You could see that for that session, the student was Present, Absent, or Not Set (attendance not yet submitted).Ā  Currently, you can’t know if the student was a No-Show, or the attendance just hasn’t been completed.Ā  It’s very confusing to our learners and admins.Ā Ā

Exciting news - any ETA’s on these enhancements?

These enhancements seem like a great start.Ā  Ability to monitor and report on cancellations as well as the ability for enrollment into multiple sessions of the same course is something we have be hoping would happen in the product for quite some time.Ā  But I have similar questions regarding what the learner sees on their own dashboard, and agree the clearest option if possible would be to show the learner the attendance status.Ā  We get questions constantly from stakeholders and learners asking why, for example, an ILT course shows ā€˜In Progress’ on a learners dashboard when the session has not even occurred yet.
