Many TAFE, VET and RTO students find themselves precariously trying to juggle outside work and family responsibilities with rigorous, hands-on coursework. For students with time-crunched schedules, the hour or two of class time may not be enough to master the practical skills and knowledge they need to be workforce ready.

That’s why institutions across Australia and New Zealand are turning to innovative technologies like Echo360 to offer their students more flexible learning options and extend learning beyond the walls of the classroom. Whether full or part-time, on-campus or fully online, Echo360 provides all students with the same rich, engaging classroom experience. With Echo360, instructors can easily record practical demonstrations and other class activities, then post them online for students to view at their convenience – from the workplace, campus library, home or through a distance program hundreds of miles away.

Using built-in features in the Echo360 platform to facilitate student engagement, interaction and social learning, instructors can build a strong connection with their students whether they’re learning in the classroom or elsewhere. They can also use the solution’s analytics to gauge their students’ participation, interaction with content and understanding of the concepts.

Deb Praden, Head Teacher of Health and Recreation at North Coast TAFE, notes: “I believe that our students are definitely more engaged in their learning. I know that the far majority of them are utilizing the videos from Echo360. We feel that they will probably enroll again with North Coast TAFE, because they feel that they’ve been valued as a learner. And we have offered them the flexibility they require to study with us at North Coast TAFE.”
