Workbook and E-Portfolio Solutions
A new way to allow an organisation to record, audit and report information as part of a certification or a qualification. Instead of relying on pages of text to read, now a learner can create a portfolio of evidence using several multimedia options.
A learner simply uploads evidence of achievement against pre-determined criteria. Uploads can be free text, MS Office, PDF, images, short videos, external links. Once the criteria are met, the user requests for the work book to be assessed/verified by a third party.
Helps to comply easily with OFQUAL’s Centre Assessment Standards Scrutiny and Moderation (CASS), avoiding unnecessary delays in certification
Assessment and verification
Learners can work alongside or independently of their assessors. Once the learner has completed their workbook or portfolio, this can be submitted to a assessor or manager for verification.
Allows the Awarding Organisation to view how the qualification is progressing or has been marked.
Multi-levels of assessment and sign-off
Skills+ workbook and e-portfolio solutions allow for work books to be assessed and signed off at several levels. For example, IQA or EQA.
This also creates a full audit trail for the organisation and regulatory bodies.
Storage Capacity
Skills+ provides a large secure online file storage which allows learners to add larger file types. E.g. PDF, audio, images and videos.
For OFQUAL purposes, these files must be kept for 6 years. Once the qualification is completed, Skills+ can compress and achieve these files which can be produced on request.
Payment Gateway
A payment gateway is available for workbooks or portfolios to be purchased by managers or users within the scheme. This reduces the amount of time an organisation requires in processing orders and payments.
How can this be used?
For a scheme that results in a user meeting an industry standard, certification or qualification. E.g. Lantra E-Portfolios and, Bridge Inspectors Scheme
As part of a member certification process.
As part of training or a qualification.
