The website version 2.1 is online (tadaaa), with a lot of news, new contents and fixes.
Not less than 63 tickets have been closed for this new version, and new strengths have been added : scholarship system revolution, rags addition (béret d’art, coat, faluche), simulators improvement and lots of contents additions (thanks to French friends).
New scholarship system : released!
Finally, you can edit your school years, this is quite a revolution!
Joking aside, even if it is true, the scholarship system has changed the data encoding aspect. You are free to encode the name of your school and/or cursus. A list will still appear to help you if the name is already known. You don’t need to contact us anymore to add you school and/or cursus, end of the unqualifiable studies by the system, whether you are a teacher, between two courses or anything, you can write everything down!
It releases you from a finite changing list, not really adapted or with missing content. However, it impacts on the data deduction and their correct formulation, for example the spelling, the full name, and some other associated data, such as the school city or country, the length of the scholarship, ...
It’s going to need a bit more of your help, for those who already encoded their studies too. Now, you must precise when a year ends with a graduation, or you won’t have any palm on your beautiful hat (no data, no palm; no palm, no diploma, …). The system detects accordingly the kind of school cycle, the more precisely, depending on the year of your diploma (cycle court <=3, cycle long >3).
If you study (or studied) in a school/university, not the one that gave you your hat (change of cursus, sector, …), and this one is lead by an existing group, you can say it. It will help the simulator to put on the right color behind your star.
Concrete belgian example : I’m studying in INPRES (school) in my first year, i’m baptized by Seraing’s committee, I have my handsome mauve and green colors. The following year, I’m studying in Sainte Croix (school), lead by the eponym group, whereof I precise my second year is related to Sainte Croix and I’ll have a black and orange background.
