Communicate, Progress, Engage

Mobile first
Maximising Engagement
Bud’s interface is designed for accessibility, it’s simple and intuitive to empower and motivate learners. With an app for iPhone, android or tablet Bud gives learners easy access to their learning plan at any time, in any place and on their terms – increasing engagement, improving success rates.
Learners and trainers can message within Bud so that all communications, events and feedback are captured. An audit trail is automatically created for Ofsted, showing naturally occurring teaching, and learner stretch and challenge.

Skills assessment
Demonstrating progress
Bud’s SkillScan allows you to measure a learner’s start point at enrolment, track progress, demonstrate distance travelled and recognise readiness for EPA. Throughout the programme Bud measures how activities have impacted learning.
Learner and trainer can instantly see exactly where they are on programme by viewing percentage complete. Progress reviews can be scheduled, remote or face to face, with evidence captured by digital signature after the event.
Bud enables trainers to RAG (Red, Amber, Green) rate learners, so that management can instantly see through reporting, who’s on track and who’s not.

Learning plan
Enabling Learning
Bud gives learners full visibility of their learning plan from any device so that they can access activities whenever they wish. This gives learners control so that they can progress, submit work and complete activities at their preferred pace.

Driving consistency
Bud’s unique workflows are designed by our in-house industry experts to drive best-practice for every action. Reducing administrative error, improving data quality, minimising compliance errors and diminishing risk to your business.
Your users can’t go wrong with Bud because trainers and learners must enter all the information required to meet compliance regulations before they can complete a stage.

Data warehouse
Powering business intelligence
Bud captures thousands of pieces of data from every learner every day and feeds it into its data warehouse which can be integrated with your preferred reporting tool. Using Bud’s dashboards, managers can build reports to gain an accurate measure of performance.
This real-time business intelligence gives a complete view of every aspect of an organisation’s performance – including learner progress. Managers can identify those who are falling behind, investigate why and act to improve learner outcomes.

Programmes
Ensuring quality training
Bud’s Programme Design Suite ensures your training is delivered at a consistently high level by every trainer to every learner. With predefined programmes you can define your core curriculum demonstrating ‘Intent, Implementation and Impact’ so that you are always Ofsted ready.
Either upload your pre-existing programmes into Bud or use our ‘off the shelf’ programmes to help you get started – both solutions allow you to add trainer instructions and resources, and standardise your delivery.
Bud provides a rich learning environment and enables learners to launch your SCORM content with one click, so that their learning experience is as seamless as possible.

Compliance
Reducing administration
During enrolment, Bud automatically generates the Individual Learner Record in real time, reducing administrative burden, minimising error, improving accuracy. Updates to the ILR are automatically recorded throughout the learning journey – so you can be sure your evidence matches your ESFA funding claim.

Evidence
Driving compliance
Throughout their training programme Bud automatically collates evidence of every interaction and learning experience, so that you can be confident in your claims for funding, including those for Additional Learning Support.
And when Hard Close, R14, comes around you’ll know that the evidence you need for your final submission has already been automatically collated. Meaning no surprises and freeing your team to focus on new enrolments.
