| CourseworkerXML and continuing professional development |
|
CourseworkerXML can be used to develop high quality modules of CPD based on implementing a consistent template for the design, development and delivery of your CPD courses. An example of this is the ifs School of Finance who were equipped with CourseworkerXML to custom publish the course materials for their new Professional DFSM® diploma. The resulting production work on the four study units involved created an initial content domain of 1 million words and 730 images and vector diagrams. The CPD is delivered using three different choices of study mode: 1) distance learning, 2) approved provider, or 3) distance learning with three workshops. The financial benefit of it to ifs are calculable. With a per course fee of £645 per unit and a programme fee of £2,580 per student, even a modest uptake of 500 students will generate in excess of £0.7m per annum. "We've been using XML in projects with CAPDM since 2005 and are very happy with both. We have built up an excellent working relationship, augmenting our internal capabilities with CAPDM's knowledge and expertise. Their standard of service is consistently high in projects large and small." Michael Kerrison, The following examples illustrate the use of CourseworkerXML for producing the Professional DFSM® CPD materials. For more about CAPDM’s work with ifs, read our case study. |
