The Korus Connect Progressive Professional Development Program is based on a Learning Relationship Management model that provides organisation-wide visibility of professional development. The system contains a ‘warehouse’ of more than 250 possible skills or learning outcomes, drawn from role descriptions and course curricula. Once learners participate in a course or record an activity, they are issued a digital badge that recognises the skill level they’ve demonstrated ranging from Bronze, Silver, Gold to Platinum.
In 2022, Korus Connect engaged Intrinsic Learning to spearhead the project, who engaged Edalex as their RSD and credentialing delivery partner. “We selected Edalex as they were able to provide a third-party repository for evidence that was compatible with the agreed business process and the Canvas Credentials system,” said Mark Keough, CEO of Intrinsic Learning. "Using openRSD Rich Skill Descriptors are automatically associated with course content in the case where a learner is completing a learning activity delivered through the portal. In both scenarios, this information is captured by Credentialate and a badge and evidence record for the correct award level is issued."
In February 2023, Korus Connect successfully launched this skills recognition solution for learners and it has been widely commended for learner engagement, saving time and transparency. Wanting something similar? We should talk!
