Functionality
Assessment Manager has an enormous depth of functionality, but we’re also aware that some customers prioritize simplicity of the interface over functionality. So, if you need to track on-the job Assessment Criteria, for example, you can. But if you’d rather ‘switch off’ and hide functionality you won’t use in order to create a simpler interface, you can do that too.
You’re in control.

Training options
Would you like us to come to your site and deliver formal training programmes for your users?
…or would you rather save the cost and use our range of excellent on-line training videos, free of charge?
……or maybe a combination of the two?
Whichever way, the choice is yours.

Ease of use
What good would an application be, if users found it uninviting or hard to use? Assessment Manager has been designed to be welcoming and intuitive – new users find themselves at home in no time at all.

Reporting
The real value you will see from your e-portfolio is not so much about how easy it is to get the evidence in, it’s about what the e-portfolio can give back to you, in the shape of reports.

Do you need to know which of your learners are likely to miss their target end date, and by how much?
…or how many days evidence sits on an assessor’s desk before being assessed?
……or see an evidence matrix with gap analysis for each learner?
Assessment Manager provides all of these, and more.

Mobile working
What if an assessor meets their learners in on sight, or outdoors, or in a truck cab or on a construction site….and doesn’t want to be carrying a laptop or even, for that matter, A4 files?
No problem, there are apps developed for iPads, iPhones and Samsung Galaxies that allow learners or assessors to use Assessment Manager whenever they’re out and about – it couldn’t be more convenient.
