Welcome to the Skills Academy Wales website. The purpose of the website is to provide an online document management system for the work based learning programme delivered by the South West Wales regional apprenticeship partnership. The Skills Academy Wales Partnership The SAWSW partnership is led by Pembrokeshire College and includes Coleg Sir Gr, PRP Training and the Princes Trust as training providers. The partnership offers apprenticeships and traineeships for young people entering employment, sponsored by the Welsh Government and supported by European Commission funding. The Apprenticeships The apprentices follow a work based learning programme that leads to an NVQ competence and knowledge based qualification whilst being employed. The employers play an active part in the development and assessment of the apprentices progress, assisting them achieve their full skills and employability potential. The Documents The apprenticeship scheme is fully documented in order to record individual apprentices progress, as well as to manage the programme and provide auditable records for the programme funders. A range of forms are used for this purpose and all can be accessed on this website. The website provides a central document management system for the scheme and includes the ability to digitally record the signing of audit documents required by the Welsh Government and Europe.

Notes: 1. The Register button is retained, as this will allow new users to gain access to the site. However, it will be an online registration form that will be submitted to the site administrator who will decide on the level of access and assign a role to the user. This will include a visitor role which has no editing rights and only access to publicly viewable pages, and also will include a reject option for inappropriate access requests. 2. This is a very basic welcome page with no graphics. It may be appropriate for an administrative restricted site that has no marketing purpose.

Skills Academy Wales Website Help Pages

Currently there are Pop-up windows when the Help Tabs on each of the pages are selected:

It is proposed that all the help pages be amalgamated in a centralised help reference structure with its own menu navigation covering all the website functional options. This is a fairly common Help provision approach for websites and users are likely to be familiar with it. Opening the Help screen in a different window is a good idea as it leaves users in the same place on the website when theyve finished. The Help tab for each page can be linked directly to the issues related to that page. A managed FAQ option is also recommended.
