Personal analysis Organisational reports Security EASE comprises mix and match modules that can be used individually to meet specific needs or collectively to provide an enterprise wide learning and content management solution.
The EASE Competence toolset allows the specification of skill-sets based on organisational competence, job roles, knowledge profiles or academic or vocational qualification frameworks. These skill-sets can include units, elements, performance criteria, plus knowledge and range statements.
Role profiles are made up of a selection of skills from different skill-sets. Once profiles are created they are assigned to courses together with self, evidence, question based and multi-rater assessment tools. The Personal Learning Portfolio enables individuals to measure their current skills and knowledge and to identify their strengths and development needs.
The online assessment of learning preferences can establish personal learning style and brain preferences (e.g. visual, audio, kinesthetic) to allow the best format for the delivery of learning content to maximise learner productivity.
A Personal Learning Portfolio (PLP) on the learner desktop puts individuals firmly in charge of their own learning, supporting them as they tackle each step of the development process. As well as providing tools to profile learning needs and create learning plans, the PLP updates individuals with latest learning news, provides advice for transferring learning to work, records their learning achievements and provides a single point of access to their current learning activities.
Learners can personalise the PLP interface and set preferences for managing their development.
EASE Competence supports self, evidence, question and multi-rater assessment formats:
Linking learning options to plans
Learning options within the training directory can be indexed against competences and learning preferences. Users can be directed to relevant training options based on the outcome of their skill gap assessment or can search the directory for subjects, outcomes, learning formats, key words and so on.
Specific programmes applicable to groups of staff (e.g. induction events) can be assigned to individual learner development plans to be integrated with competence based training planning and personal development options.
Mandatory competence testing for regular assessment (e.g. annual health and safety) can be assigned to groups of learners with evidence certificates produced on completion and corporate records maintained for inspection.
EASE Competence encourages individuals to take a strategic approach to development asking them to think widely about their current skills needs, workplace objectives and career plans. Learners set SMART development objectives, identify learning options and create a personal learning route to translate learning into improved workplace performance.
Learning achievements are recorded against the plan to compile a learning history and to complete the learning cycle.
The EASE Competence module is fully integrated with EASE Campus and links closely with the Programme Map from EASE Content Based on the assessment outcome, EASE Competence highlights resources within the course map that are of relevance to the user.
Multiple language support is available for both assessment material and user interface elements.
Standard report formats for an individual include text and graphical outputs and highlight learning alternatives against the skill needs. These reports can form the basis of reviews with development coaches or mentors to assist in defining activities to apply the new skills in the work place and support longer term career planning.
Report formats can be tailored to meet business requirements as well as providing organisational summaries of skill levels across departments to correlate with strategic development plans.
EASE Competence has comprehensive security features to give maximum data security. Learners, mentors, managers, administrators, tutors all have profiles that can be set up to provide them with access to relevant data and menu functions.
