Online Assessment tender

Notice Description

Coventry University Higher Education Corporation Group (referred to hereafter as Coventry University) has achieved great success in recent times, with rapid rises in league table position and student satisfaction, as well as strong growth in student numbers. However, as outlined in the Group's 2030 vision (Appendix G), there is a need to be adequately prepared for further change and upcoming challenges in the HE sectors. Operating within the competitive higher and further education markets means that Coventry University must invest in, and rethink, its digital experience to meet the expectations of both the current and future student needs. The role of technology, and the way it is used, at universities and colleges is increasingly seen as a strategic differentiator. The rise of "Digital" and the growing importance of student satisfaction to the overall performance of HE institutions creates an imperative for institutions to ensure that the processes, systems, and functions involved in formulating the student user experience and customer service delivery are future ready across Coventry University. To maximise this opportunity, Coventry University is taking a holistic view of the student journey, from application through to alumni. As we enhance and optimise the end-to-end student journey through the Student Engagement Programme (SEP), we need to ensure that the equivalent learning experience enables all our teaching & learning platforms to work collectively in the form of a distinctive Coventry University EdTech ecosystem. Therefore, this approach enables us to reimagine the entire student experience through a new, forward-looking programme, bringing new platforms and partnerships which places student engagement and attainment at the centre of this work. Coventry is a global university with offices in China, Kenya, Nigeria, and Pakistan it has world leading research and academic partners on every continent, with students gaining life changing experiences all over the world. This document outlines the tender requirements identified for a Coventry University-wide Online Assessment platform, offering a digitally enabled, student-centred and accessible curriculum.
