We would like to draw your attention to a very interesting blog post by our Canadian partners, the Touchstone Institute. In cooperation with UCAN, the exam of the „Internationally Educated Nurses Competency Assessment Program (IENCAP)“ was digitized. The written part of the exam was administered using the ProgressTest wrapper, for which UCAN implemented an interface to an external proctoring provider to ensure a secure exam. The OSCE exam took place via Zoom with a custom dashboard. The examiners performed the assessment from their locations using the tOSCE app, thus the complete test was carried out digitally without media discontinuity.

Das InnoVET-Projekt „ProNet Handwerk“ entwickelt mit Förderung vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung modulare, gewerkeübergreifende Blended Learning Fortbildungen „Smart Living and Working“ mit den Abschlüssen Bachelor Professional und Master Professional, einen E-Campus inklusive Prüfungssoftware für digital gestützte Modul- und Abschlussprüfungen sowie Weiterbildungsangebote für das Bildungspersonal. Damit soll die Attraktivität der beruflichen Bildung im Handwerk insgesamt gesteigert werden. Um das Handwerk angemessen auf zukünftige Herausforderungen vorzubereiten, werden mit dem Innovationsprojekt neue Konzepte entwickelt, welche einen nachhaltigen Mehrwert für das Handwerk schaffen sollen. Hierbei handelt es sich um moderne Fortbildungsberufe zur Förderung digitaler Innovationen, die Erschließung neuer Geschäftsfelder, die Ermöglichung neuer Aufstiegswege in den Betrieben und auf der Baustelle sowie einen Image-Gewinn für das gesamte Handwerk.
