The Elevate Portfolio from Paragon Skills: Our latest innovation in the educational landscape

Find out about the new Elevate Portfolio used at Paragon Skills to help apprentices learn in the best way for them.

As the world evolves at a rapid pace, we at Paragon Skills are committed to staying ahead of the curve and providing our students with the best possible learning experience. With this in mind, we have developed the Elevate Portfolio, a unique learning suite that combines multimedia tools and innovative teaching strategies, to create an extraordinary learner journey.

At the heart of the Elevate Portfolio lies a suite of cutting-edge multimedia tools. Gone are the days of traditional textbooks and lectures. Our learning materials come in various formats, including videos, interactive eLearning modules, podcasts and group workshops. By catering to different learning styles, we ensure a dynamic, immersive, and stimulating learning experience for each and every learner.

One of the key components of the Elevate Portfolio is the use of ‘Flipped Learning’ methodology. This innovative approach flips the traditional classroom model on its head and promotes active participation in the learning process. By introducing pre-class learning activities such as interactive eLearning modules, we aim to make workshop sessions more impactful and collaborative. This not only increases the effectiveness of the learning experience but also allows students to learn at their own pace, catering to their unique learning styles and abilities.

Flipped learning also fosters increased learner involvement. By becoming active participants in their educational journey, learners develop a sense of ownership and investment in their learning. This heightened motivation leads to better outcomes and a deeper understanding of the subject matter.

The monthly group workshops are conducted by our incredible trainers who bring expert knowledge and real-world experience to the learning setting. With the help of Microsoft Teams, these workshops create a dynamic learning environment complete with breakout spaces and whiteboards. This technology-driven approach ensures an interesting, collaborative, and immersive learning experience for our learners.

One of the unique advantages of our group workshops is the opportunity for improved social support. By interacting with their peers and tutors, learners can form a supportive learning community where they can share ideas, learn from one another, and gain valuable insights. This collaborative environment not only enhances the learning experience but also promotes personal and social development.

At Paragon Skills, we believe in providing our learners with the best tools and approaches to help them achieve their goals. Through our Elevate Portfolio, we aim to make learning an interesting and fulfilling journey. We are committed to supporting not only academic development but also personal and social growth. Join us on this exciting educational adventure and elevate your learning experience with Paragon Skills.
