MyKnowledgeMap is excited to announce that it is starting work with more universities and disciplines. MyKnowledgeMap’s e-portfolio and assessment tool, MyProgress is going to be rolled out at the University of Bedfordshire and the University of Bristol. 

University of Bedfordshire 

A brand-new client of ours, the University of Bedfordshire will have 1500 students using MyProgress by 2024/25 across the following disciplines: Nursing, Midwifery, Nurse Associates, Physiotherapy, ODP, and Occupational Therapy.  

University of Bristol 

MyKnowledgeMap was already working with the University of Bristol, providing MyProgress for their Medicine students. The university saw great success with this and was looking for an e-portfolio and clinical assessment tool for its Veterinary School, so it is running a proof-of-concept project with the Veterinary Science programme, with a view to expanding later this year. 

These two cases demonstrate some of the broad range of disciplines that MyProgress supports. Whether you are involved in nursing education and need to ensure that your learners meet the NMC Standards, or in medical education and need to demonstrate the required knowledge, skills and behaviour outcomes that graduates must be able to show, you can rest assured that MyProgress facilitates this in an intuitive app and web service.
