Skills Builder is a unique suite of initial and diagnostic assessments in English, maths, ICT and ESOL, along with ground-breaking video resources for Functional Skills and GCSE.
Skills Review is a self-assessed skills gap analysis tool which allows you to evidence the recognised prior learning of your apprentices in line with any apprenticeship standard.

Skills Portfolio is a comprehensive cloud-based e-portfolio solution that comes preloaded with your awarding body qualification standards, reducing the cost of delivering these qualifications and, most importantly, engaging your learners.
The Skills Go mobile app allows full offline access to Skills Portfolio and includes links to our innovative video resources.
Our paper-based initial assessments in English, maths and ICT are full colour, 20-page booklets that will assess a learner’s spiky profile as well as their overall working-towards level.
