"As a product manager, I want to implement a content update mechanism so that the resources in the library stay relevant and useful for users, promoting ongoing learning and effective use of the platform."

Description

The Content Update Mechanism requirement pertains to establishing a systematic approach for regularly reviewing and updating the resources in the library to ensure that they remain current and relevant. This includes scheduling periodic audits of the content, integrating user feedback, and adapting resources in response to changes in platform features or user needs. The implementation of this mechanism is crucial for maintaining the quality and effectiveness of the resource library, which directly supports user onboarding and continuous learning. Regular updates will also help reinforce user trust in the resources provided and encourage them to engage more thoroughly with the platform.

Acceptance Criteria

New users access the content update mechanism to check for recent updates and new resources in the library after their initial onboarding training.

Given a new user logs into the AeroPlan platform, when they navigate to the Resource Library, then they should see an updated section indicating the most recent content added within the last month, along with a timestamp of the last update.

The content update mechanism prompts users for feedback on the resources provided in the library to ensure relevance and quality.

Given a user has accessed a resource in the library, when they finish viewing the content, then they should be prompted with a feedback form asking them to rate the resource and provide comments, with at least 70% of users giving feedback within a quarter.

Platform administrators conduct a quarterly audit of the Resource Library to review all educational materials and ensure they are up-to-date.

Given the scheduled audit period, when the audit is conducted, then all resources must be reviewed for relevance, with at least 90% of resources either updated or confirmed as current within the audit report.

Users receive notifications about important updates in the Resource Library to encourage them to revisit and engage with the new material.

Given a user has opted in for notifications, when new content is added to the Resource Library, then they should receive an email notification within 24 hours detailing the new resources available.

The Content Update Mechanism effectively integrates with user analytics to assess the usage of resources in the library.

Given the analytics system in place, when a report is generated, then it should show at least a 30% increase in resource engagement metrics over a three-month period following the implementation of the update mechanism.

Expired or obsolete resources are automatically flagged for review by the content management team.

Given a resource has not been updated in over six months, when the content management system is reviewed, then the flagged resources should be listed for potential removal or update recommendations, ensuring less than 5% of resources become obsolete.
