Demonstration of capabilities

Use of data, evidence & thought leadership

  • Experiential learning has gone through rapid change and Practera has been applying substantial research and technology development to work out how best to deliver (whether online, in-person or blended) and adjust their program based on the delivery mode.
  • Practera conducts detailed efficacy research to detect issues in their program to intervene before they become a student learning issue. 
  • Practera is also at the forefront of solving industry issues and is part of a CRCP program to research and design a privacy system to protect a user’s privacy when learning analytics data and are combined from  multiple learning sources.

Education and employment are strongly connected

  • Practera’s experiential programs are all about employability and helping the student build valuable and employable skills. Their platform ensures the student gets to practice the learning, not just receive it. 
  • There is a very strong feedback loop (combining  educators, students and peers) within the program to ensure learning outcomes are delivered.
