RE: Preliminary market consultation: Student E-Portfolio System, ref ITS073LTU.


Introduction
Leeds Trinity University (a small university) with approximately 7,700 students, is embarking on a project to select and implement a student e-portfolio system.

• Allows a range of media to be uploaded as evidence, including both written documents and audio/video recordings.
• Allows the evidence to be grouped into different categories e.g., Leadership, Communication, Problem Solving
• Displays indicators of a student's progress within each skill and attribute category.
• Allows personal tutors to access the platform and view their student's progress.
• Provides a channel for personal tutors to communicate with their students.
• Includes a reporting function that provides insights on engagement and personal tutoring data, which can be used for internal or external reporting.
• Ability to integrate with student records systems (e.g., SITS)

We will collate expressions of interest and review content. Dependant on the number and scope offered by respondents, we envisage inviting providers of a cross section of solutions to participate in a more detailed consultation, perhaps to include demonstrations.
We envisage invitees will be confirmed by e-mail before 18th March 2022.
