Welcome to SkillWise, the home of VQManager e-portfolio. VQManager is a web-delivered system which assists organisations in their delivery of work-based learning and traditional FE qualifications.
VQManager was first used in 2006, and has since attracted an extensive and broad base of customers including FE colleges, private training providers, local authorities and the NHS. Today, over 80% of our new clients come from existing customer recommendations.
VQManager has several exciting features designed to make the assessment process more effective and efficient. The most recent development in this area is VQMobile - an off-line version which allows assessors to work away from their desks using just an iPad!
We hope that you will find much of the information you require right here on our website, or alternatively please use one of the contact options and we would be delighted to speak with you in person.
