Note: Surpass Assessment is now the company name for BTL and BTL Surpass<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are delighted that long-standing Surpass Community\nmember, NCFE, has chosen to continue their relationship with BTL and commitment\nto e-assessment by renewing their contract with Surpass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NCFE is one of the most widely respected awarding organizations in the UK and has a strong reputation for innovation. Recently, NCFE has been selected to deliver 6 of the 9 brand-new T Level qualifications with the first available for delivery in September 2020. NCFE first joined the Surpass Community in 2009 and has used Surpass to create and deliver their Functional Skills English, Maths and ICT qualifications, in addition to a number of vocational qualifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NCFE is known for looking ahead to the future and for ways to enhance processes, and within the organization they have created an Online Assessment Manager role, dedicated to making the most of the Surpass platform and how it can help them achieve their goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surpass has already proven itself to meet the needs of NCFE\nand their varied qualifications through the platform\u2019s flexibility,\nintuitiveness to use for both candidates and test developers alike, and the\nability for it to adapt to the specific needs of the business. NCFE is dedicated\nto providing first-class customer service, alongside high-quality assessments,\nand they work closely with BTL teams to provide this all-round exceptional service\nto their customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contract renewal also sees NCFE successfully migrate\ntheir qualifications from the Surpass 11 platform to Surpass 12, which they\nachieved in just 3 months due to effective project management. In time, the\nmigration will allow NCFE to take advantage of some of the additional\nfunctionality that Surpass 12 has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the contract renewal, and transition to Surpass 12, Toni\nBrooks, Online Assessment & E-Marking Manager at NCFE said: <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u2018The move to Surpass 12 was a short, intense and challenging project, and at times seemed unachievable. However with the support of our NCFE Project Manager and our BTL Account Manager we tackled the project by breaking it down into smaller and more achievable objectives. We met regularly to review these objectives and tracked them as closely as possible, and did what we needed to do to achieve the launch date of 1 September. I\u2019m thrilled we delivered this on time and was able to speak with great pride about it at the BTL Annual Conference.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Sonya Whitworth, Managing Director at BTL added: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u2018We\u2019ve worked with NCFE for many years, so we are delighted to continue that relationship by being given the opportunity to work with them for more years to come. NCFE\u2019s purpose and culture are closely aligned with those at BTL; just one of the reasons we work so well together. The team at NCFE have really become Surpass experts over the years, and this was a great advantage in ensuring a smooth transition to Surpass 12<\/em>.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
