Celebrating 20 years

This weekend the company is 20 years old

Axia Digital will be holding a celebration event on Friday to mark its 20th anniversary. The company is enjoying a period of growth in customers and staff and there are now over a million users of our sites worldwide.

The celebration event will provide an opportunity for the existing team to meet with previous Directors and employees.

Richard Etheridge the company’s Technical and Operations Director who has been with the company throughout the 20 years it has been in existence, comments that

‘The purpose of the event is to thank all those who have supported the company throughout the years. We are delighted that two of the original Directors Bronwen Robinson and Barrie Hopson will be attending. Without their support and that of other former Directors who be attending we would not have reached this important milestone.

Axia Digital is the trading name of Citizen Connect Ltd which was first registered as a company on November 12th 1997

Discover our offer to professional bodies

Are you a professional body that wants to increase the range of services you offer to your members? Do you want to move some of the services you offer online but are concerned about cost?

Continuous Professional Development is changing. Gone are the days when just counting CPD activities was enough, what matters now is that individuals are able to demonstrate a commitment to their development and evidence the impact CPD has had on their practice. Capturing that impact on paper is difficult. An e-portfolio makes it easier through providing greater inter activity.

We have a worked with a full range of professional bodies of all sizes in the UK and internationally, from ones with less than 250 members to others with more than half a million students,  to enable them to provide their members with a range of tools to help them plan and capture their CPD

Just some of the tools we have developed include;

  • Planned Pathways on key topics to help members plan their CPD
  • Pushing a record of a CPD event that a member attends, into their CPD record
  • Inviting others to verify professional records and CPD activity
  • Managing applications for accreditation from the professional body online
  • Creating multiple reports from one CPD record.

Our distinctive offer is that we are able use these tools to handcraft each site to meet the specific needs of our partner professional bodies.

If you want to find out more we are holding a series of one hour online interactive workshops in which we will present our work and you will have an opportunity to ask questions.

The workshops will take place on;

  • Monday 20th March at 11.00 a.m.
  • Wednesday 29th March at 9.00 a.m.
  • Friday 4th April at 11.00 a.m.

    New Online/Offline CPDnow app now available in Google Play and iOS stores

    Imagine having access to an online/offline application which is handcrafted to reflect the way your site works now. There is no need to change your approach to CPD and assessment because our app only works this way, we can still mirror your approach.

    The app versions of our sites are developed in such a way that if the app detects there is an internet connection, then it will load the full site with all functions available including the ability to authenticate mentors before sign off inside the app itself.

    If the app detects that there is no internet connection it will drop back to the off line version where the key items that it is agreed need to be accessible off line, remain accessible. It will be clear to the user they are in offline mode and a different type of authentication process will be enabled. As soon as the app detects that they are back online then all the content captured off line will automatically be added to the online site.

    New Date for e-Assessment of Professional Practice workshops announced

    A number of workshops took place over the central band of the UK last week. In addition to the Universities who attended, the workshops also prompted other Universities who were unable to attend to organise individual meetings. The company has therefore a busy schedule of meetings arranged for the New Year.

    An additional workshop will also be held on Monday 23rd January 2017 between 1.00 p.m. and 3.30 p.m. at the Executive Suite, Oxford Brookes University. Lunch will be provided, the event is FREE and there are no restrictions on the numbers attending from each University.

    Universities who attended the workshops last week fed back that they found it useful to discuss the key issues involved in transitioning from paper to electronic portfolios and discovering the way these had been addressed at Southampton; Bournemouth and Surrey Universities. All these sites have now moved from a pilot to a full implementation and there are now over 11,500 active users at Southampton University.

    The focus of the sessions was and will be on;

    • Enhancing the user experience
    • Accessing the sites
    • Institutional Benefits
    • Project Implementation

    It was apparent that a number of Universities consider that revalidation provides an ideal opportunity to make this transition from paper to electronic portfolios.

    If you want to book a place(s) at the workshop or arrange an individual meeting please contact our Customer Services Director Chris Peat by email chris@axia.email or phone him on 07771 996620.

    This means that members will be able to create and update CPD plans and records even when they are offline. As soon as they are back online whatever changes they have made to their CPD Plans and Records will be automatically synchronised with their online record.

    axia_digital_web_graphic_09The Android version of the Application has been available for a few weeks and already over 200 members have signed up to use it. We expect a similar demand for the Apple version.

    Crucially the way we have developed the application and the changes that we have made to our core NOW.net platform means that it is possible to create online/offline applications for each of our sites.  We are therefore able maintain our offer to existing and new customers that their sites are handcrafted to their specific requirements. You do not need to change what you do, to fit in with the way our online/offline application works.
