‘We have always had a passion for the training and assessment industry. As the industry leaders in competency based assessment, our focus and commitment is always to innovate – to continually design, create, refine and adapt to remain at the forefront of an ever changing industry.' – Julie Verner-Mackay, aXcelerate Founder and Reay Mackay, Managing Director.

Many training providers currently use paper-based assessments. This can be extremely time-consuming and ineffective. In turn, this can affect the experience for the student who often requires practical assessment tools that match their different learning styles. Completing written paper-based assessment in a training room is not the only way to identify the student’s ability to perform tasks. It is, therefore, not surprising that this is the number one area where training providers in Australia fail their compliance audits: providing quality and valid assessments to their students.

aXcelerate’s online assessment tool provides the ability for work-based trainers to assess students' competency anywhere, anytime using our specially designed software and trainer app.

The iAwards, hosted by the Australian Information Industry Association, is Australia's longest-running, most broadly scoped innovation recognition program that rewards excellence in Australian innovation.

Congratulations to all the 2019 winners!
