BEST TOOL FOR QUALIFICATION BY WORKING
WHAT IS EDUKIT?
In many countries vocational education is organized at least partially by companies providing apprenticeships or work-based education. Work-based learning in companies leads to recognized qualification upon completion. Edukit is a mobile app for work-based vocational education supported by Edukit Console web portal for its management activities. Edukit can exchange data with existing education administration systems.

The most important tool for apprenticeship training success and evaluation! In our company we have experienced that the apprenticeship training flows smoothly and saves everybody’s time and resources when we use Edukit. It inspires Students to make competence-based units of qualification on real working sites as assessments can be made remotely by teachers for them.
Edukit brings great benefits We have been very pleased with Edukit in the education of the tinsmiths. Edukit is a flexible and powerful tool for collaborating with Students and Job Instructors and for monitoring work tasks of Students.

EDUKIT FITS IN ALL WORK AREAS
Improves especially big group management Thanks to Edukit, a teacher can communicate better with students. Students have better understanding of what parts of the qualification they are working with. Very good tool for competence tests since teacher can comment each phase of the task, not just the end result.
