Learning Assistant's e-portfolio system allows Assessors and Verifiers to monitor all Candidate activity from anywhere, at anytime.
"A level 2 paper-based NVQ used to take 18 months, but with Learning Assistant, two candidates completed their award in 4 months."
Michell O'Driscoll, Lead Internal Verifier at Birmingham City Council
Reduction in Paperwork
With internet connection, all coursework and portfolio building is done online. Assessors and Internal Verifiers see exactly what their Candidates are up to. The need for bulky paper-based coursework and evidence folders is now completely removed, streamlining the workflow for Learners and Trainers.
Improved Efficiency
As all Candidates' work is now stored online, it is possible for Assessors to look at work without making workplace visits. Avoiding unnecessary meetings increases efficiency, and decreases the waiting time for Candidates to be assessed. Assessor and IV feedback is recorded online too. Various tools quicken the process, including: the Evidence Wizard (a way of cross-referencing holistically), the Task Wizard (a way to pre-map criteria against a task), and the Sampling Summary (a guide to IV sampling).
Increased Productivity
Learners are able to progress through qualifications quicker, and Assessors/IVs are able to make more productive use of their training time. Training providers can now manage an increased number of Candidates, with an increase in quality of service.
Accountability
Accompanying the comprehensive progress tracking system is an audit trail that records all contact between Candidate and Assessor/IV. Goals and objectives are added to the Candidate's Contact Diary. Learner progress is logged and planning is updated, setting out the milestones by which progress and standards can be measured.
Conclusion
The assessment and verification cycles are concertinaed, and the whole process is short circuited, saving you time and effort. Learning Assistant ensures that productivity is maximised, and personal development accelerated.
