Registration, Achievement and Certification

Administration of learner/student cohorts

Quartz provides highly flexible functionality to allow the definition of cohorts of learners/students for providers/centres such as colleges, employers, training organisations, etc. Quartz provides optimised screen entry of learners/students, and support for e-registration either uploaded through Quartz Web (the Quartz Portal), via e-mail or by web-service APIs.

Entry of learners/students is through screens, or via a wide range of electronic formats for integration with providers’/centres’ systems (e.g. college MISs).  The system has been designed to save time at the awarding body and at the centres.

Quartz uses a sophisticated fuzzy-matching to identify corresponding learners, and minimise duplicate registrations.  It also provides a learner-merge facility and can support legacy learner number schemes as well as the ULN.

Recording and tracking of achievement

Recording and tracking of achievement includes the following facilities:   

  • The user interface is optimised for fast and easy entry of achievement, together with extensive data quality validation
  • Units can be awarded either fully, or using a mark or percentage
  • Providers have web-based access to real-time on-line record of achievement
  • Complete recording of partial achievement and individual test results is provided
  • E-award facilities provide electronic transfer and loading of achievement – saving time for providers/centres and the awarding body

Certification

Quartz has a unit based model at the core of its design. It supports Certification facilities include:

  • Unit and Full Award (Qualification) certificates content and layout is defined locally and tailored, including multiple formats (and languages) for a course
  • Flexible production of certificates, e.g. for an individual, for all learners on a ‘course’, or for all learners achieving at a particular provider
  • Certificate content can be reviewed on screen before printing, or at any time in the future for reference
  • A full audit trail of certificate versions is automatically maintained.
