Online and Blended Learning
INTRODUCING PLUS
In January 2015, we launched our online and blended learning portal PLUS enabling us to provide online, cost effective, high quality training.
PLUS enables us to support those who prefer to learn online, it allows us to bring groups of learners together for online meetings, it allows us to extend the learning process through a combination of workshops and online learning.
Learners tell us PLUS is engaging, easy to use and the support from their trainers has been fantastic. Our client training managers make use of the client reporting to track progress and they appreciate the cost savings. Our Polaris Learning trainers find it is a great way to provide bite-sized learning.
TRAINING AND QUALIFICATIONS ON PLUS
We offer a wide range of training and qualifications on PLUS, making the most of the brilliance of blended and helping you to keep your team competent:
ENHANCING THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR LEARNERS
A wide range of media, activities and tools to take learners through the learning cycle including videos, supporting notes, visual lessons and more.
We provide personalised feedback on the activities and tasks. This encourages the learners to think about what they are learning and how they can apply this new knowledge.
The ‘My Progress Report’ helps learners to see how much they have achieved, and also to help them re-visit where they left off on returning to their course on PLUS.
We work hard to build a good rapport with each learner, understanding their job role, where they need extra help and supporting them through their training and qualification.
KEY BENEFITS ON PLUS FOR TRAINING AND COMPETENCY MANAGERS
Our client reporting is built in as standard so whether you have one learner or many to look after, we can provide you with client access so that you can monitor the progress of each learner.
We can also build in your paperwork and process into the training where this is beneficial. This can be done in a number of ways including adding materials into PLUS, creating short videos with your key messages or asking the learners to refer to your paperwork and processes.
And just as importantly, online and blended learning provides a way for training and competency managers to offer cost effective, high quality learning.

CASE STUDIES
15 rigs, 2 regions, 450 assessors, 10 consultants, 1 learning platform, 90% complete and counting…
Polaris Learning has worked in partnership with a global drilling contractor based in Singapore to provide an innovative programme of assessor and internal verifier training in support of the launch of their Competence Assurance System across the organisation’s fleet of rigs.
The training was rolled out across 15 rigs working throughout south-east Asia and Africa.
The company’s supervisors completed the online assessor training programme via our online learning portal PLUS.
Each rig was appointed a dedicated consultant to support, monitor and provide feedback to those participating on the programme.
We were also commissioned to develop SCORM compliant refresher packages for both assessor and internal verifiers which were to be hosted by the client on their learning management system.
