XtremeLabs has recently rolled out some exciting new features for our administrators and account managers to manage their Learning Partner (LP) account information and manage content for their classrooms. These features allow administrators/account managers to add and update learning partner details, as well as contact information. Administrators can also manage the external content by using the new content management feature in the account portal and associate the content to specific classrooms.
These new features are live in all our classes across the globe.
