Target Skills Gold
Your personalised, online learning system
The next generation of Skills for Life materials, Target Skills Gold places the entire Target Skills suite on line – including screening and assessments, management tools and learning activities. Optional online tutor support means that it can be used any time, anywhere, and resources that link to personalised learning plans are generated automatically. The results from online practice tests are fed into a complete ‘back office’ system, which tracks progress and exports data to your MIS systems (such as Maytas or EBS) for ILR submission. Target Skills Gold has even more content than in the classic Target Skills suite, with an extensive bank of learning materials, plus links to other free resources, including DfES resources. Target Skills Gold can bring immense benefits to colleges, companies and other organisations, allowing better use of existing staffing resources, maximising return on investment, and providing evidence to support the draw-down of funding for skills improvement.
Customisations
The Target Skills Gold system, inspired by our work with McDonald’s, can be completely customised to meet the needs of your organisation. For example, we can add your organisation’s branding or include sophisticated information-capture systems to the end product. Successful customisation projects are currently running with First Group and Compass.
"Target Skills has been a great success in our organisation. Our staff have had training to help them give a clear interpretation of the results to learners, who really enjoy using a computer-based tool. The results are presented in a clear format, and they give an accurate guide to the learner’s level of literacy and numeracy. We have been able to promote this initial assessment tool with confidence to other organisations and users.”
