October 2025: Focused on strengthening alumni onboarding automation within the osunyorg/admin workspace by delivering an end-to-end email notification workflow triggered during cohort imports. Automated invitations are now sent to alumni as soon as they are imported, with detection of relevant extranets to ensure accurate recipient targeting and prompt access notification. This reduces manual onboarding steps for admins and accelerates time-to-access for new alumni. No major issues were reported in relation to the onboarding flow this month, and the implementation aligns with our onboarding and activation KPIs.
