## About this tender

We are looking for a web-based Adult Community Learning (ACL) Education Management platform that is capable of capturing both tutor teaching quality and improvement action information along with associated ACL learner management information. The platform solution must be supported by an automated reporting capability providing a comprehensive range of reports covering both tutor and learner activity with associated performance measures.

ACL tutors are offered a range of teaching, learning and assessment training sessions as part of their staff development. The solution must be capable of capturing tutor attendance at these sessions, allowing access to the solution by both tutors and managers and providing a comprehensive and automated reporting process. Data captured should include as a minimum the attendance particulars for the sessions, focus areas, identified actions, outcomes, staff development needs, areas for improvement across the service, individual development plans for tutors and performance records.

Alongside we are also seeking the capture of vital information linked to associated ACL learners, notably information related to learner achievement, retention and pass rates along with other key data, to ensure we can report statistics which support ACL to accurately claim our funding while ensuring we remain compliant with ever-changing and demanding government rules and inspection standards. Although it is not essential, it would be good if the Education Management Platform could aid in tracking learner development - monitoring teaching and learning expectations.

Minimum requirements of the solution, it must;

â&#128;¢ Interface with 2 different MI Systems (PICS- PELLCOMP, Terms - WestMarch Systems)

â&#128;¢ distinguish between Accredited and Non Accredited learners

â&#128;¢ have the ability to see data for specific curriculum staff
