Fit:

Suitable for course delivery and assessment after redesign. Map learners, enrolments and completion evidence separately; no verified direct import of Docebo histories or admin rules. Workplace multi-tenancy, recurring certification programs and dynamic rules require the commercial extension. Rebuild integrations and validate content package versions.
