E-Portfolio

With E-Portfolio, Learners can build their portfolios online, submitting evidence for assessment as they progress. Assessors and verifiers then review the submissions, with all feedback recorded within the system. Access to the portfolio can also be given to the Learner’s employer, an Expert Witness, and External Verifiers. Verification of Candidates’ work has never been easier.

Course Folder

The Course Folder is split into units, elements, and performance criteria. The folder also holds the Awarding Body standards that need to be met. Key documentation, such as course notes, can be added electronically. This central store of material allows Learners to work where and when they please. There is no longer the need to have hardcopy notes – everything is viewable on the screen. Learners can readily see their progression through the qualification.

Evidence Folder

As Learners build their e-portfolio, Learning Assistant allows them to store and manage documents online. Learners record work which is used as evidence of “standards achieved”. All evidence is stored in the Evidence Folder, and can be recorded in any digital format, from Word documents to video files. Uploading evidence is no more difficult than attaching a document to an email. Once uploaded, a piece of evidence can be cross-referenced into any section of the qualification, and then electronically submitted for assessment. Assessors, Internal and External Verifiers can then review the work as necessary.

Contact Diary

The relationship between Candidates and Assessors/IVs is supported through the provision of an online “Contact Diary”. This delivers a private, personalised record of the learning strategy agreed. Feedback on progress and summaries of one-to-one reviews can be recorded here, so that when the EV looks at an e-portfolio they see the complete audit trail.
