Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, UA Local 853 used EchoExam to generate fair assessments and stored them on an internal server accessible only at the training centre. COVID-19 prevented apprentices from taking exams at the centre, but UA Local 853 didn’t miss a beat by adding PointSolutions to facilitate weekly testing and online participation. Today, UA Local 853 creates exams with EchoExam and continues to provide weekly testing and particiption opportunities via PointSolutions, allowing students to choose the best environment for their needs.
UA Local 853 uses remote testing so trainees can go to a quiet place and log into exams on their preferred devices. This ensures that all test-takers can perform to the best of their ability.
UA Local 853 uses PointSolutions to do knowledge checks on the fly, ensuring trainees both keep up with lectures and retain the information discussed. Word clouds and hotspots are especially handy for visual demonstrations.
UA Local 853 sees higher retention rates since adding PointSolutions to its training courses. Specifically, learners with documented learning disabilities benefit from the extra knowledge checks to keep them on task.
