NQF
All Intoweb's Training Systems are NQF based. Our Training
Systems's NQF levels are level two and three.NQF 2 indicates
a basic level and NQF 3 an intermediate level.
NQF(National Quality Forum) does quality measurement in
information systems to ensure quality improvement.
NQF is a type of structure containing every approved educational
qualification available allowing students and workers to
gain national and international recognition in the courses
completed.
Most qualifications gained in the workplace are National
Certificates meaning NQF levels one to four.
NQF is designed to provide students:
consistent standards and qualifications
recognition and credit for all learning of knowledge and skills.
When a student has obtained Framework qualifications, they are then quality
assured and nationally recognised.
Every learner gaining credits on the Framework receives a Record of Learning
(ROL).
The Framework is a three-pronged quality system:
national standards are registered
used by accredited organisations
a moderation system ensures national consistency.
SCORM
Intoweb applies SCORM's system to it's training systems.
SCORM ( Shareable Courseware Object Reference Model) is a
suite of technical standards enabling web based learning systems
to find, import, share, reuse and export learning content
in a standardized way.
SCORM offers a set of services that launches learning content,
keeps track of learner progress, figures out in what order
learning objects are to be delivered, and report student mastery
through a learning experience.
SCORM makes use of XML and an API (Application Programming
Interface - provided by SCORM) to enable communication between
the course and the LMS (Learning Management System). Many
LMS vendors make their product SCORM compliant so that it
can communicate with any SCORM compliant content in a standardized
and consistent manner. Therefore, if a course is SCORM compliant
it will be able to be installed and communicate with any SCORM
compliant LMS and vice versa.
SCORM enables complex directed learning expetience that goes
far beyond what can be done with simply hyperlinked web content.
SCORM contains three parts:
1. Overview
About the model, vission and future
2. Content Aggregation Model
How to put learning content together so it can be moved and
reused.
3. Run time environments
How content is launched and the learners progress is tracked
and reported back.
