Ecordia extends online learning and e-assessment systems
Published:  01 September, 2007

Ecordia, a leading supplier of online learning and eassessment systems, is now extending its capabilities to include, BTECs and University Diplomas – alongside NVQs and Basic/Key Skills. Ecordia has also recently been appointed as a supplier for the Open University.

Una Lawson, Head of the Vocational Qualification Assessment Centre at The Open University, comments: "I was hugely impressed with the Ecordia system. With online delivery of vocational awards through Ecordia, we hope to continue to offer the highest standards of delivery."

Ecordia uses training professionals who have over 10 years experience in their field to develop the company's training system. This less technical approach to e-based learning sets Ecordia apart from other suppliers ensuring the system is significantly easier to use.

Matthew Seldon, Business Development Manager at www.ecordia.co.uk, comments: “Ecordia enhances the learning environment – candidates learn at a pace and time that is convenient for them and quicker assessment ensures increased motivation.”

Online learning reduces time and cost with one training provider using Ecordia, reducing assessor travel expenses by up to 90%. A typical work-based training provider could save between £5,000 to £10,000 per year (per cohort of just 35 candidates).

Ecordia’s broad base of clients and current figures support the company's success story with their average timely achievement rate of 94% contrasting with a national average of 30%. Assessors have also benefited from Ecordia - one sample of five assessors, new to the system, processing 35 candidates and evaluating 73 items in one day.

Matthew Seldon continues, “Training providers can finally implement and benefit from a system that really works. It is no secret that many systems have failed to meet expectations and this has been a result of poorly designed systems and a lack of focused support. Ecordia is different, it is a proven solution driven by a dedicated team of training professionals.”
