The challenge

Workplace Learning Requires More Than Traditional Examinations

Graduate readiness is demonstrated through authentic workplace performance—not examinations alone. Institutions need continuous evidence, structured feedback, and measurable competency development throughout the learner journey.

  • Competency evidence scattered across paper logbooks and spreadsheets
  • Difficult tracking of learner progression across clinical rotations and workplace experiences
  • Inconsistent workplace assessment practices
  • Manual portfolio review and approval
  • Limited visibility into competency development
  • Subjective entrustment decisions
  • Delayed mentor and faculty feedback
  • Difficult accreditation evidence collection
  • No unified learner portfolio across the academic journey

Capabilities

Comprehensive Workplace-Based Assessment Management

Workplace Assessment Management

Configure workplace assessment templates including Mini-CEX, DOPS, Case-Based Discussions, workplace observations, and competency evaluations from one centralized platform.

Portfolio Evidence Collection

Collect workplace documents, images, videos, reflections, assessment records, case evidence, procedural records, and professional achievements in a single learner portfolio.

Faculty & Mentor Evaluation

Enable supervisors, mentors, assessors, and faculty to perform structured workplace evaluations using standardized rubrics and competency-based feedback.

Real-Time Learner Monitoring

Track learner progression, workplace assessment completion, competency achievement, pending evaluations, and portfolio status through interactive dashboards.

Structured Feedback & Reflection

Capture formative feedback, learner reflections, mentor observations, improvement plans, and workplace learning evidence throughout the academic journey.

Portfolio Review & Validation

Review learner evidence, validate competencies, approve portfolio submissions, monitor evidence completeness, and prepare learners for progression and graduation.

Built for

Designed for Competency-Based Professional Education

Mini-CEX

Evaluate real clinical encounters through structured observation and immediate faculty feedback.

Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS)

Assess procedural competence using standardized checklists during authentic workplace activities.

Case-Based Discussions (CBD)

Evaluate clinical reasoning, decision-making, professional judgment, and applied knowledge through structured case discussions.

Entrustment Decisions

Determine the level of supervision or independence learners can be trusted with based on accumulated workplace evidence.

Digital Portfolio

Build comprehensive learner portfolios that capture evidence, reflections, workplace assessments, competencies, and professional development.

Workplace Feedback

Collect structured observations and feedback from mentors, supervisors, clinical instructors, and workplace assessors.

Structured capture

Capture What Learners Actually Do.

Evidence should be easy to record in context, time-stamped and aligned to your competency model, not stored as unstructured files.

  • Mini-CEX and DOPS.
  • Case logs and activity logs.
  • Reflections and supporting evidence.
  • Program-specific templates.
  • Mobile-first capture, with offline capability where supported.

Supervisor validation

Evidence Should Be Observed. Not Self-Declared.

A submission becomes stronger evidence when an authorized supervisor reviews, rates, comments and approves it, creating an auditable link between learner activity and educator judgment. Try it below.

Learner submission

Mini-CEX · Chest pain: history and exam

Took a focused history from a 58-year-old with intermittent chest pain, performed a cardiovascular exam, and presented a differential to the supervising physician.

Framework mapping

From Activity to Competency.

Connect workplace experiences to CLOs, PLOs, EPAs, milestones and competency frameworks, so programs see not only what a learner did, but which capabilities it evidenced.

Longitudinal progression

See Progress Over Time.

Move from isolated entries to clear learner, cohort and program progression. Learners see their gaps, supervisors see what still needs observing, and coordinators see patterns.

  • Learner-level competency progress.
  • Evidence coverage and gap views.
  • Cohort-level trends.
  • Program-level attainment and EPA progression, where mapped.
  • Accreditation-ready reporting inputs.
