Product Development

Overview

The Product Development Module will transform the way you develop, launch, review and even withdraw various qualification products, and in doing so, strengthen your internal control, transparency and compliance with relevant regulatory requirements, supporting virtually any qualification type, assessment, and grading model.

It supports the development of regulated and non-regulated products whether initiated in-house by your staff, apprenticeship industry trailblazers, or by your external customers who submit new product proposals requiring development and approval to support local delivery, employment and training needs.

Pre-loaded with a range of configurable forms and templates, this module will help enforce your rules and workflows, removing the need for multiple emails, documents and spreadsheets by bringing together all activities, evidence and decisions into one place.

An example of one of the many benefits of using the Product Development’s pre-loaded forms is the Development Form. Organisations use this form for their configured iteration to demonstrate how they’ve followed and documented development procedures from the qualification’s business case review, to the rationales and support received for its assessment, grading and delivery models, including associated reviews and sign-off of these arrangements. As well as this, the form can detail the rationale for, and detail behind the associated Centre Assessment Standards Scrutiny (CASS) strategy (mandated for regulatory awarding organisations), and the rationale and sign-off for the qualification support materials and customer fees.

The product rules you assign and sign-off in this module are automatically integrated and applied to the other modules within creatiogreen, removing data duplication and streamlining internal processes.

Key Features

EMBEDDED QUALIFICATION DESIGN TOOL

A powerful qualification design tool is embedded into the forms, capable of supporting the development and update of any qualification product type.

You can assign tasks to internal or external parties to create and review content, learning outcomes and assessment criteria, and product structures from the simple to the incredibly complicated. For example, qualifications with numerous pathways, qualifications within qualifications, or combination ordering or barring rules such as X has to be achieved before Y or if you choose A you cannot do B.

A powerful validation tool checks your final product structure and reflects the intended design rules to provide your staff with peace of mind before the product is signed-off for ‘live’ delivery.

GRADING & AWARDING CERTIFICATION RULES

The grading and awarding tools enable you to select from a variety of different grading models and set grade boundaries, resit rules, and stipulate how the assessments are to be undertaken such as internally assessed and externally moderated or via paper or online exam, etc.

As well as this, it can specify the awarding rules for individual components and products - with a wide range of options which can even take into account the assessment models and centre performance to automate and streamline arrangements.

Via these features you can also specify the certification method - paper certificates, e-certificates or both - and how they are dispatched to your customers and learners.

DEMONSTRATE COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATORY CASS AND RISK PROFILING RULES

For organisations offering regulated qualifications, the Product Development module includes configurable, CASS templates to reflect their approach to meeting CASS rules.

This feature will prompt your staff to consider and address the rules per development or review, with the added ability to set or update the risk profile for the qualification.

With an easy to use, interactive CASS dashboard, the module will streamline and strengthen your CASS arrangements.

SECURE DOCUMENT ACCESS & DELIVERY

Attach materials to your qualification products, configuring the visibility and access rules for learners and customers - including publication windows, to ensure documents are viewed by the appropriate parties.

REAL-TIME PROFILES

Each product has a real-time profile which not only shows the product details, development and review activities, but also its delivery arrangements including the take-up across your customer base to help inform activities, future sales and your quality assurance and delivery resources.

Automatically bringing together core information into one simple and complete product profile.

AUTOMATICALLY COLLATE DELIVERY DATA TO INFORM REVIEWS

To aid your CASS and overall product reviews, the Product Development module allows organisations to effortlessly collate, search and review the delivery profile for each product and related activities such as appeals, complaints or investigations, etc, to identify if aspects of the qualification’s assessment, delivery or awarding model may have contributed to these events.

Organisations can also view customer feedback submitted in relation to the qualification, as well as being able to review and sample quality assurance or moderation reports.
