Get on Course for Success

Milton Keynes is a great place to live and work. The design of the the roads get you about the city with ease. If you prefer bicycle or bus then it's just as easy. Milton Keynes is still growing and have proved to be an ideal location for business. It is also centrally located which makes it easy to travel to other towns and cities for work. I have worked in Rugby, Northampton, Oxford, Swindon, Nottingham and Leicester. None of these places seem that far away when using the Motorway. I now deliver one-day courses to businesses in all these towns and find the travel easy. My company InIT Learning allow your staff to #getoncourse for #softwaretraining without the need to travel. InIT Learning travels to you. Contact http://www.initlearning.net to Get on Course for Success

Improving Productivity using IT

Improving productivity using IT is a mandatory unit from the ITQ qualification. It's about the process of doing a job from the planning stage through to reviewing and changing.

Plan - do - review - improve

This can be achieved in a couple of ways. It can be assessed, normally with a holistic approach while learners are carrying out their normal jobs. The other way is by a marked assignment. It is the marked assignment that some learners get the completely wrong idea. I have delivered courses using the BCS Awarding body and their marked assignment is excellent and learners got through it fine. On the other hand City and Guilds is slightly different and for some reason learners find it a bit confusing. I have seen some really excellent assignments from learners, however, I have seen a lot where learners simply answer the questions from the perspective of someone taking an exam rather than getting into the role of an employee as per the scenario.

I have delivered several sessions (I know other tutors who have done the same) and still learners get the complete wrong idea. I am puzzled how two award bodies can be so different. I would love to hear from other tutors that use City and Guilds and deliver this unit.
