e-NVQ

Focus Training uses different ways of interacting with their learners. One of the most popular is E-NVQ – which is an online portfolio, which enables learners to submit their work online instead of in a paper based portfolio. Training consultants then receive the work immediately and can assess the work online instead of waiting for the next visit or relying on the postal service. Each learner has their own unique log in details and will receive feedback once the assessor has assessed the work.

e-Portfolio

Focus Training is now using the new version of e-NVQ which is called e-Portfolio. Since April 1st 2011, Focus Training Apprentices have been assigned to this system where the new SASE (Specification of Apprenticeship Standards for England) Frameworks and PLTS (Personal Learning and Thinking Skills) was introduced. This system, provided by EDI, allows the learners to work remotely and contact their Training Consultant, submitting work inbetween visits speeding up the time of their Apprenticeship. This system makes life for the Assessor easier as gone are the days of trudging around with big folders full of paper, this paper free system allows Focus Training to be sustainable aswell as time efficient.
