We are delighted that the latest release of Kallidus, version 8.3 is now here!  Last summer's launch of Kallidus 8 was such a an exciting leap forward -  new 'iGoogle' style web gadgets on the learner interface allow formal and informal learning, and social networking, to work seamlessly together.  The new reporting platform tracks trends and results to deliver valuable business information to managers and the boardroom.  And now the new release further enhances the user experience and functionality of the LMS and Performance.  Many of the new features have been created as a direct result of feedback from the Kallidus User Group which is great to see.

New LMS functionality includes integration with SkillSoft's OLSA platform, which is particularly exciting as Kallidus users will gain access to extra features of SkillSoft content including more media rich learning experiences and 24/7 mentoring.    

Other additions to the LMS include multiple evaluation forms with the new feedback functionality and a new import facility for importing historical accreditations data for your learners.  In Performance, the new competency statement section enables managers to define whether or not an employee is competent to perform their role. And objectives can now be assigned to whole groups or teams whilst still being tailored to individual criteria or requirements, so each employee can have their own unique version of an overall group objective.   

Kallidus 8.3 also sees the addition of Turkish as a new language translation, taking the total number of languages now available to 23, at a time when the importance of publishing software in local languages in central European was recently confirmed by Deloitte with its Central Europe top 500 companies list and analysis.

All this development comes as we prepare to launch our annual user survey.  We're looking forward to seeing the impact Kallidus 8 is having on our user's organisations and, as ever, continuing the process of gathering their valuable feedback and input.
