Mysore/IBNS: UK-based VTCT Skills has partnered with Excelsoft Technologies to develop an advanced, AI-enabled e-assessment platform aimed at modernising vocational and technical education.

The collaboration marks a major step in VTCT Skills’ digital transformation strategy as it expands its qualifications portfolio and global reach.

A leader in vocational and technical education, VTCT Skills offers a wide range of industry-recognised qualifications and works closely with training providers and employers worldwide. With new programmes and market expansion on the horizon, the organisation initiated a global review of assessment platforms to identify a robust, scalable and innovative solution.

After a comprehensive evaluation, VTCT Skills selected Excelsoft Technologies to deliver 300,000 digital exams annually. Excelsoft’s Saras platform — known for its rapid implementation capabilities, advanced configurability and unified suite of assessment features — emerged as the preferred choice.

The Saras platform’s user-friendly, web-based interface, strong security framework and accessibility compliance were key factors in the decision. Its support for seamless third-party integrations and smooth data migration further aligned with VTCT Skills’ operational requirements.

The new platform will support VTCT Skills’ diverse qualifications across sectors with consistency and scalability. The integration of AI-powered features will enhance efficiency across authoring, scheduling, marking and reporting, improving insights and learner engagement.

“Our vision is to ensure learners are equipped with industry-relevant skills through cutting-edge education and assessment experiences. Excelsoft’s Saras platform aligns perfectly with our digital ambitions,” said Alan Woods OBE, Chief Executive of VTCT Skills.

“We are thrilled to partner with VTCT Skills on their journey toward digital excellence. Our Saras platform is built to empower organisations to transform assessment delivery, embrace AI and improve outcomes for learners,” said Ajay Kulkarni, Head of Sales at Excelsoft Technologies.

The partnership sets a new benchmark for digital assessment in vocational education. With implementation underway, the platform is expected to go live in the coming months, benefitting learners and educators across the UK and beyond.
