An Activ Solution
can be very quickly implemented. New Test Centres can
be set up in days rather than months.
An Activ Solution takes full advantage of the benefits
of scale offered by a centralised approach to testing management, allowing
every organisation, regardless of its size or structure, trouble free implementation of BCS best practice. The Solution is suitable for organisations needing provision of the IT User skill sets across the
enterprise, for commercial testing centres, or smaller companies
wishing to upgrade their workforce skills base in a single package.
Activ Solutions
work; our approach is already in place and working effectively
for thousands of high profile UK and international clients, giving you the
peace of mind you require when implementing an IT Training
and Testing programme.
Full
Technical Infrastructure Consultancy Services are included
to enable your IT training staff to deliver services efficiently.
Activ Solutions
feature a ‘pick and mix’, modular approach
to your training and testing provision, allowing you to create a solution
that is tailored to your company’s needs.
With experienced Test Centre Managers on our staff, we
can provide support to ensure trouble free accreditation
as a BCS Test Centre.
The
support and management of Candidate Registrations and Certification can be
entirely automated through full use BCS Premier Service, greatly reducing Test Centre staff administrative workload.
Reduced registration administration and costs can also come
through the use of electronic ECDL logbooks where the BCS have deals in place for specific sectors. The use
of electronic logbooks to support ECDL was pioneered
during our development partnership with a major public sector organisation.
We
can provide online installation and Invigilator Training
and Accreditation capability if required. Face to face
Invigilator Training can be provided in the implementation
phase of our work with client organisations.
Activ data management is best delivered online over the Internet,
but can just as easily be implemented across your Local Area Network
or on stand-alone training and testing machines.
Activ Solutions
feature simulated, competence-based Testing
that runs independently of underlying applications, and
examines
the candidate’s ability to actually demonstrate
the required skills. All aspects of post-test student
data and result management from the user PCs are automated.
We provide a significant suite of tailored Management Information reporting; these reports provide all the information you will need for internal and external management and auditing.
We
can manage student data transfer between the Testing
Database and most HRM Data Systems.
We
offer practice diagnostic Assessment Tests for most BCS Qualifications. These can be used to identify the training needs of your
students, or as pre-exam revision. Use of the Assessments
increases first time pass rates significantly, resulting
in further
savings in training time and costs.
The
Testing Software is entirely scenario-based, as required
by the ECDL Version 4, and other BCS syllabuses.
Through BCS Premier Service we include automated final Certification management, meaning that
your Candidates' Certificates are automatically dispatched once they
successfully complete their final ECDL test.
Where
required, a wider Training Needs Analysis capability
can be provided to integrate ECDL with your strategic
Training and Information Systems requirements.
