1.1. Luton Borough Council is looking to engage qualified organisations to quote for :

Luton Adult Learning (LAL) is a training provider that offers a blended approach to delivery of courses and qualifications allowing a mix of face to face and online opportunities. LAL currently use an Initial Assessment tool and e-portfolio which are supplied by the same organisation.

LAL are seeking a software solution for managers, teachers, assessors and learners to be able to access a web based e-portfolio and for Initial Assessment tests to be sent out to potential learners. It would be preferable for the initial Assessment to integrate with the e-portfolio.

The solution will be used for approximately 800 learners and apprentices each year and working with a blended approach is an expectation from Awarding Bodies and Ofsted. Hosting 500 live learners.

Hosting of archived learner files is required.
