We are extremely proud of the latest quality review from Pearson. Below is the Inspectors report from our annual quality audit July 2017

Centre Recognition Criteria:

“All of the team are occupationally competent and professionally qualified. Assessment practice is good with clear feedback to learners. Internal verification is extensive with virtually every portfolio verified. Professional development has recently concentrated on updating assessors and verifiers on proposed changes to standards, sources of e-learning and the topics covered in standardisation: feedback and plagiarism. The centre has developed its own VLE in order to make additional resources available to learners”.

Learner Support:

Assessment and Verification:

“The first contact for learners is with centre management and the advice given is helpful and detailed. All learners are self-funded adult learners who have the basic qualifications needed for teaching (and a large proportion are graduates) so little additional support is needed for numeracy and literacy.

Support for learners is excellent – online and by telephone and the learners interviewed were very enthusiastic about the promptness and level of support”.

Records:

“All staff are fully qualified and use all appropriate assessment tools, particularly since the learners are geographically widespread. Assessment is carefully planned to meet the needs of individual learners and internal verification is virtually one hundred percent of the results forming the basis of subsequent meetings.

All documentation is computerised, including learner work, assessor feedback and internal verification and is, therefore, always available for audit purposes. As the learners are self-funded, data analysis is not necessary for quality audits and is used only to plan centre provision.

Learners are encouraged to give feedback after assessments and the centre uses Survey Monkey for more formal feedback the results showing that over 90% of learners are extremely satisfied with their learning experience”.

We deliver many courses as a distance learning option allowing you, as the customer the flexibility of studying in your own time from wherever is convenient. You are not fixed to college classroom timetables or the typical Wednesday evening. With BBE Training you will still have the benefit of having a dedicated fully qualified tutor who will give you personalised support throughout your course. Often learners request that they have same tutor and progress further with continued and dedicated 1-2-1 support.

Blended learning is extremely popular amongst our corporate clients as it offers the benefit of utilising various delivery methods to suit the business needs, either operationally, financially or both!

Blended learning often utilises a mix of either classroom and online or distance learning. For example, one of our clients in the airline industry may find it difficult to gather a cohort of delegates for a 3 or 4-day course. What we can do is offer the theory as distance learning or via our online learning portal with the practical element in the classroom. This reduces the time spent out of the operation and allows for a more flexible approach to the delivery.

We also provide the same tutor for the full course duration. Offering the online version of a course to those attending an in-house qualification as an extra, gives the delegates the opportunity to refresh or complete any aspects that may not have been done in-house. Flexibility is key to a successful blended learning approach.

We have a purpose built online learning platform that we have heavily invested in to give the customer a high-quality experience when studying one of our courses. Online is a course where all the components can be studied via a dedicated learning portal. Most of our courses can be delivered in this format. A great way to learn with the ability to complete from anywhere in the world providing you have access to Wifi. We have learners from all over the world including India, South Africa, The Middle East, Continental Europe and the Falkland Islands.

As well as the online and distance learning options, we frequently deliver classroom courses for a whole range of clients. There are many benefits of delivering to a group in a classroom when blended or distance learning is not an option. We regularly deliver training courses either in-house or at one of our UK nationwide centres.

If you record your own session you need to ensure that you meet the quality criteria as required by the awarding body.

The qualification specification states that you need to ensure that you deliver to a minimum of 3 learners. This can be done through having learners where you are delivering and recording the session or by delivering to learners via Skype along with your tutor.

NB: If you choose to deliver your micro teach via Skype (a form of video conferencing) it is your responsibility to ensure that you have sufficient broadband width and suitable IT. Normally a laptop with a built-in camera is sufficient. Skype is easy to download and it is simple to operate using the provided instructions by Skype. You simply invite other users to join you. Your tutor will help you if need further assistance. To find out more go to www.skype.com its free!

The BBE Training E- Learning portal is a web-based learning platform that we have invested in to give our learners the best possible experience. It is a fantastic tool allowing learners to simply follow assignments and work through their coursework.

Learners can complete and upload or download and complete offline before uploading to their login area.  All work is marked and assessed from within the learning platform with functions allowing tutors and learners to automatically make notifications to each other when a process has been completed such as an assignment has been uploaded ready for marking or when it has been marked. It stores all communication centrally and is the system that allows learners to be able to work on any device by downloading the App.

Our system operates a customised branded Moodle system and you can find the app here: https://download.moodle.org/mobile/ Simply purchase your course then download to your device and login in to your course, using your BBE login details that you will be provided with.

If you are looking to book a group of delegates on to a course, please ensure that you contact us to discuss first as we can usually offer a choice of options to help you get the best from the course and for the business.

For group bookings, we can often deliver at your premises or offer you one of our centres for a dedicated delivery. This can also be a blended option depending on which course you choose to book.

If you are looking to study a qualification from our education and training suite of qualifications we offer a choice of awarding organisation. If you book a course with us we include registration and certification within the price to be registered with TQUK. By booking with us we keep our promise that there are no extra hidden costs and always include the registration and certification fees within the cost that we sell our courses for.

So why the choice of Pearson or TQUK?

The qualifications are the same. The credit value is the same and they are the same qualification on the OfQual framework, as well as being equally recognised throughout the UK. Some of our customers choose Pearson as they are a more recognised brand – sometimes preferring the idea of having a qualification from an awarding organisation that they are familiar with.

To sum it up, you will be registered with TQUK unless you request otherwise at the point of registration after you have purchased your course. If you wish to be registered with Pearson there is a charge. This can vary from £40 for the award in Education and Training Level 3 to £180 for the DET Level 5. If you do wish to pay extra for a Pearson accredited qualification please let us know at the point of registration via email with your registration paperwork.

“Effective practice demands that the majority of observations are conducted “live” so that the observer can make rounded judgements not just about delivery but also on learners’ responses and outcomes and how the dynamics of teaching and learning evolve. Those training providers that use remote observation for assessment purposes should note that a balance of in-person and remote observation is recommended, and only then if the Awarding Organisation is satisfied that the remote observation is robust. Remote observation can be helpful when it is utilised as part of a professional discussion, but the sole use of remote observation techniques involving video or digital recording does not provide sufficient scope and should be avoided.”

feadvice.org.uk

This effectively means that observational criteria is strictly monitored and therefore we as a training organisation need to make sure that you have everything in place to complete the qualification. All of our courses are inclusive of everything for the advertised cost, however, we do need to check if further observations are required by us as part of your course studies if you do not have sufficient resources internally to meet the requirements. If it is believed that further observations are required we will need to cover these costs. This is charged at £25o plus vat per day plus expenses to cover the tutors for the day. Wherever possible we will try to absorb costs to keep these to minimum. To discuss this further please contact us on 03332 07 66 33 to discuss your requirements.
