Content: What we do

AVPT is the only UK Globally Accredited online and workshop based provider of over 390 Soft Skills courses using a cutting edge, proprietary online Learning Management system. The Social Enterprise ‘not for profit’ arm of our company is called ACEE. It takes an awful lot of time and effort to create a training course; Designing, researching, writing, and appropriately presenting it. Especially difficult though, even more so is the time taken to create an on-line learning system to work fluently and securely with various technologies. We know this because we have done just this. What most people, employers, entrepreneurs and even some educational institutions do not have in today’s current environment is time the necessary resources and the infrastructure they need to support and achieve their learning objectives. Both our online and workshop based courses are a cost effective way to deliver and up-skill a wide cross section of our society. Designed to be student (user) centric and time sensitive. We believe that online courses can save time, are easily scalable, reduced acquisition costs per person, measurable, provide a flexible virtual support system, Less paper/ink (environmentally green!) and are generally less stressful owing to their user led flexibility!

It can be difficult to meet the needs of all members of society with different schedules, language & geographical demands. All our courses are ready, can be modified, whilst delivered through our up-skilling online portals or express workshops around the UK. Our objective is to utilise our expert resources to support individual study and life-long learning by bringing education directly into the hands of communities and businesses. Designed to enhance the quality and impact of teaching and the learning experience whilst users are on the move, giving them the tools and opportunity to develop their existing skills and knowledge.

How have we used technology? Learning Management Solution (LMS) & Portal Hub The Academy of Vocational and Professional Training has a sophisticated LMS solution that is not built on a static system. Yet the user interface is clean, clear, accessible, and easy to understand and work through. It uses little bandwidth, making it quick to load and use, and accessible on a scalable model. Globalisation has changed the way we communicate, do business and relate to each other and technology can help to up-skill a far wider audience.

In today’s ever changing environment, the real promise experts say, is providing learning experiences that are more tailored to individual students that enables more “learning by doing,” which many students find more engaging and useful. Our ‘Chunked’ teaching approach revolutionises the learning experience. Teaching using 21st Century pedagogy, AVPT educators must be student centric and for that reason all of our virtual teacher and workshop facilitators have been highly trained to create the most comprehensive training experience for

individuals within our broader society. Effectively covering everyone’s individual learning style! Our courses will not only train them in soft skill but also help them to become technology fluent.

Case Study

Ministry of Justice AVPT was accepted onto the MOJ procurement system to help with the ‘reduction of reoffending program in the coming months. It is very time consuming and expensive to identify the numbers of teachers needed to go into each prison to deliver relevant courses that can result in a prisoner leaving prison with a recognised qualification. AVPT is able to transcend this problem because all of our online courses come with a live Virtual tutor who can facilitate the student throughout their course.

This has many far reaching benefits and is cost effective and because all of our courses are globally accredited, this means the qualifications are transferrable. At the same time we are creating an opportunity for several people to become one of our qualified Virtual Tutors and work with a classroom tucked away inside their mobile tablet device.

What does success look like/our ambition?

COLLABORATION: To be fully engaged with all Job Centres, trade associations, housing associations, charities, enterprises, membership organisations and corporate companies who want to facilitate structured and meaningful soft skills training by providing access to our training portals or white labelling solution. STUDENTS: To become the preferred supplier of Soft Skills training courses. We have seen an expanding and extended period for graduates, resettlers, long term unemployed, disabled, immigrants, prisoners, single parent mothers and over 50’s out of work, people with no qualification of any kind, with no real way of demonstrating to potential employers, or investors in new business ideas ,that they have up-skilled via a credible and recognised organisation. BREAKING DOWN BOUNDARIES: Often too many boundaries in place separating people from the tools they need in order to unlock any opportunity. Because our workshops are only 1, 2 or 3 days, and the maximum period of study online is 4 weeks, Success to us would be providing bespoke online up skill portal links so

that our collaborative partners could log in and directly place a person who is eligible for support on a short soft skills course and then the course could be accessed using their own device, borrowed device or online via their smartphone, mobile devices, intranet, internet hub at the library, at home or anywhere they can achieve access to the internet without losing any one to one support by an online tutor. ONLINE TUTORS: To help us recruit and train more potential Virtual Tutor Facilitators who could then start a career by supporting other online students throughout the community. This would be particularly attractive to the over 50’s and long term retired people within our society who still have a lot to give. However success to us would be the creation of a lot more jobs that could be done using mobile devices. TECHNOLOGY: To partner with a smartphone or tablet mobile device manufacturer so that in the very near future every applicant without a mobile device could receive their e-learning course as a mobile device in the post with their virtual tutor inside. To see greater fluency of using the internet by more people for educating themselves.

ACCREDITATION & VALIDATION: Accreditation and educational quality assurance are essential factors that complete the educational ecosystem. Regional accreditation bodies have dutifully evaluated education providers on a regional scale and granted them Primary Accreditation. However in the wake of growing globalisation for individuals to compete with their international peers, the training organisational body must be recognised as an accredited education provider on an international bases. It is imperative to create standards that are regionally and internationally recognised and accepted. It is for this reason that Academy of Vocational and Professional Training Ltd sought and attained the Full Global Accreditation to ensure that students who wanted to provide evidence of their skill around the world could truly benefit from our courses and the awarded certificate would have some true value globally

What is the social impact? The importance of transferrable skills. There can be no doubt about the importance of a degree and a solid academic background but it’s not the only thing that employers will be interested in. Especially where there is strong competition for entry to a job, employers have to find a way to choose. Educators must focus on the personal qualities and skills that can be developed while studying, and acquired as information in mutual exchanges of information. In a competitive employment climate, these can be just as (or more) important to employers as a degree certificate. Employers are looking for people with transferable skills.

These include: • Team work • Decision making • ICT skills • Problem solving • Time management • Written and spoken communication skills. They also need people with personal qualities and abilities such as: • Willingness to learn new things • Ability to work under pressure • A sense of responsibility There are lots of ways in which these skills and qualities can be imbedded into students. Writing essays, taking part in tutorials and giving presentations as part of the course can enable students to develop time management, analytical, ICT and communication skills. As a student acquires such practical skills, it tends to boost their confidence as well.

Our business model? All of our courses are affordable and can be paid for by:

Individuals, family member

an organisation, charity, enterprise

sponsorship,

donations,

Government or educational institutions.

Fundraising

Foundations or trusts In other words our business model allows us to attract payment for our courses from a variety of revenue streams and even offer bursaries to those who cannot afford it from our fundraising activities such as the national lottery, trusts etc.

AVPT Global! We get people qualified in days, not years, through our soft skills training

courses, which are globally accredited through IAO and are available online or in

workshops. All online courses are supported with a personal tutor!
