AVPTGLOBAL Our Learning Model
Quality, Standards & Accreditation Accreditation and educational quality assurance are essential factors that complete the educational ecosystem. In the wake of growing globalisation, an increasing number of students are opting to study at education institutions or work for companies outside their home country. It is imperative to have standards that are both regionally and internally recognised and accepted. It is for that reason that AVPT Global sought and attained in June 2012 full global accreditation from the International Accreditation Organisation (IAO) to ensure that students around the world would truly benefit from our courses and awarded a certificate that would have some true value globally.

How did one of our students describe a VTF Testimonial by Sebastian who completed the VTF independent Course in February 2013
"
Upon completing my course, I can describe the role of a Virtual Tutor
Facilitator (VTF) as I see it. A VTF is assigned to students to facilitate their learning from a position of neutrality, by encouraging, emphasising, and through the use of scaffolding techniques. The role is not one of teaching, but instead one of motivating critically. A VTF is able to review the work undertaken by students and correct misunderstandings and insufficiency through open interventions which allow students to empower themselves to find solutions which work for them, as opposed to students simply being corrected or marked. 37
