The Test Event Notification and Results Capture System (TENRCS) is a business system which provides an enhancement to the existing results and certification systems for adult and apprenticeship programmes. The specific function of the TENRCS is to automate a number of manual tasks linked to assessment. The use of this system will greatly reduce the risk relating to the incorrect calculation and/or transcription of learner results, while providing an electronic tracking system of the assessment process.
Progress to date includes the development of the initial system and full user acceptance testing with a range of staff in relation to the roles of assessor, training standards officer and assessment designer. It is envisaged that the project will be piloted in one Education and Training Board (ETB) during 2019 and will be rolled out to all other ETBs following successful completion of the pilot.
The breakdown of funding allocated to this project is set out in the attached tabular statement.
