Why Change?
• Traditional "paper based“ portfolios, are a stop/start approach to delivery.
• learners and assessors compile documentation to be retained in ring binders, leading to lots of waste and ineffective evidence.
• The learner and assessor tend to have short contact meetings, with long periods of inactivity in between.
• The whole learning process is inefficient, and for many learners and employers, largely inappropriate and antiquated

ISIS ILT Strategy
• From start of new contract year, 1st Aug 2007, ISIS began to fully implement the new ILT Strategy as follows:
• ENVQ became the standard platform for all WBL qualifications.
• Paper based portfolios are only used when a learner or employer has a specific need and ENVQ is unsuitable.
![Page 8: From Paper to Pixels](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062222/56814e35550346895dbb9e48/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ISIS From paper to pixels Project 8
Implementing the Strategy• E-Learning activities were carefully
planned.• Staff were trained in the required ICT
Skills through a comprehensive CPD programme.
• Learners are assessed to ensure their individual learning needs are met.
• E-Learning facilities are appropriately presented and adequately resourced.
