What does it mean to: "digitise your assessment process?"
Many Skills Development Provider’s (#SDP) have applied to offer e-Learning (holistically), through the SETA’s but have not thought through where to begin, and as such, do not have an e-Assessment strategy in place. What are we digitsing? In what order? and, what will success look like?
​
eLearning requires access to learning content digitally (this can be virtual classrooms or e-Learning (like a MOOC). Conversion to e-Learning requires massive time and resource commitment from you as the #SDP. The e-Assessment part of the process requires Assessment of:
1. Knowledge & Understanding,
2. Behaviour AND
3. Skills
1
KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING
​
(COGNITIVE DOMAIN)
Both of these cover the Knowledge component required by the SETAs and QCTO policies. But this is only part of the assessment, and these results need to be added into an e-P.O.E.
KNOWLEDGE :
Knowledge is fairly easy to assess in an e-Learning/LXP Platform, which will then be marked digitally.
UNDERSTANDING:
Understanding is a little trickier as it is free text and requires a written exam that is reviewed by an Assessor.
2
BEHAVIOUR
​
(INTERPERSONAL DOMAIN)
BEHAVIOR:
Behavior can be assessed in an e-Learning or 3rd party psychometric platform, analyzed digitally/with human assessor (psychometrist) and these results also needs to be added into an e-P.O.E. folder.

SKILLS
​
(PSHYCOMOTOR DOMAIN)
Using P4P will ensure that you achieve final step in the learning loop of the assessment process digitally.
​
All the evidence from the knowledge and understanding, Psychometrics as well as the Skills Assessment are captured into P4P e-P.O.E. folder of the learner, and this is then assessed by a human assessor. (This cannot be assessed effectively in an LXP/e-Learning/LMS platform.)
SKILLS:
Skills can only be assessed with a Subject Matter Expert assessor (human) and a Portfolio of Evidence (P.O.E.).
This is why P4P exists.
We continue to pioneer the e-Assessment & e-P.O.E. for demonstration of skills. (physical activities such as movement, coordination, manipulation & dexterity.) Actions, demonstrate fine or gross motor skills.
The Assessment Process
Unlocking Digital Transformation: The Power of eAssessment
At P4P, we recognize the critical role that e-assessment plays in the digital transformation journey. Our team brings a unique blend of expertise, spanning low-tech, hybrid-tech, and cutting-edge virtual reality e-assessment processes across diverse sectors. By integrating the brilliance of highly skilled technical architects with seasoned industry leaders in skills development, we empower you to fulfill your e-assessment promises to clients.
Why Start with Assessments?
-
Simplicity and Impact: While designing, converting, and providing content can be complex, assessments offer a straightforward entry point into the digital realm.
-
User Adoption: E-learning adoption remains a challenge for self-directed end-users. Assessments, however, are universally understood and accepted.
-
Proven Success: Our track record demonstrates that focusing on assessments yields measurable results quickly.
We’ve decoded this starting point—the assessment process—making it easier, more supportive, and cost-effective. For an in-depth exploration, refer to our Digital Ecosystem paper authored by our R&D team (click here to read).
As game-changers in e-assessment and Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), we continue to impact talent and skills development landscapes. Trusted by organizations, governing bodies, and professional certification bodies, we invite you to make informed decisions that benefit your company and, ultimately, the hopeful learners you serve.
Benefits of digitising YOUR Assessment of Learning process using P4P
You can now apply our digital solution to various Assessment / RPL “problems”
(as we have done for clients such as BP (2015) and Sasol(2015-2016), SASCA (2019), SAESI (2019) Emergence Growth (2021) Ucademy (2021)​
Several SETA verifications completed using e-P.O.E (MICT, PSETA, Services SETA, LGSETA, QCTO, ETDP, CATHSSETA and FASSET) and pilots underway with FoodBev, CETA, MerSETA.​
You can offer e-Assessment, e-Moderation and access e-Portfolios in a strictly governed process to all your stakeholders.​
Seamless electronic communication between learners and assessors in one portal which forms part of the P.O.E.​
Enables SETA’s to conduct e-Verifications.​
Your learners now have a portable Ed-Tech “backpack” after assessment of learning or RPL. (You can help them become more marketable)​
Incredible learner centric support including call centers that contact your learners on a weekly basis, Assessor support groups, admin support groups
You can track your assessors progress in real time – this enables better reporting.
Your learners can have a seamless technical learning journey. Easy to return for more.​
