How recommendations in Daily and Weekly Digest emails work: The content included in Daily and Weekly Digest emails is powered by the same personalization system used throughout Degreed, including the Home Page. These emails do not use a separate recommendation system.
Recommendations are generated using a combination of signals, which may include:- Skills: The skills you follow, build, or show interest in
- Learning activity: Content you view, save, complete, or interact with
- Content trends: Content that is popular or frequently engaged with in your organization
- Social activity: Content shared with you and activity from people you follow
These signals are combined to provide a mix of personalized and discovery-based recommendations.
Daily Digest focuses primarily on surfacing timely content recommendations based on these signals.
Weekly Digest includes a broader summary, which may include:- Your learning activity and progress
- Social updates (such as shares and network activity)
- Recommended content
Influencing your recommendations
You can influence the recommendations you receive by:
- Updating and following relevant skills
- Engaging with content (viewing, saving, completing)
- Interacting with shared or assigned content
Recommendations are personalized and continuously updated, the content included in these emails may change over time.
- Occasional tips: This includes Onboarding emails, Skills check up emails, and We Miss You emails.
