Data integrations	February 17, 2026	Enhancement	Exclusion rules for Clever staff integration sync	Clever staff integration now allows clients to exclude specific staff and teacher records during the Clever staff integration sync. What’s new: New exclusion list in sync settings. Users can create rules based on Clever user type (staff or teacher) and fields such as Title, StaffID, Teacher_Number, or Email. Rules support `in` and `=` operators, with AND logic within each rule. Multiple rules can be created for IN operator only; deleting a rule removes the entire rule block. Records matching any rule will be excluded; existing matches will be deactivated and removed from teacher and counselor lists. The default behavior is to expand all. A system error is shown if required fields are missing when proceeding.
Work-based learning	February 17, 2026	Enhancement	Partner portal phase 2 released	We’re excited to announce that Phase 2 of our new Work‑Based Learning Partner Portal has launched. Phase 1 introduced key features that allowed Partners to connect with districts or schools and manage their own Contact and Organization information. Partners also gained the ability to create and share opportunities. With Phase 2, we have expanded the Portal to support student Engagement and Hours management. New content that has been released includes: Student engagements now appear in the Partner Portal for partner‑created opportunities. Partners can update engagement statuses directly in the Partner Portal. Student-submitted hours on partner-created opportunities route to partners for approval before moving on to district or school staff in Naviance. Privacy protections ensure that students are only displayed to partners from districts or schools they’re connected with.
