PaperFree

Promoting simplistic Web-design and helping to minimise waste and environmental impact of technology.

Why are we different?

PaperFree was born, as part of BMW Rover in the mid to late 90’s to tackle the recording of competencies in the workplace.  

Hugely successful and groundbreaking in design, innovation and concept it became the worlds first e-portfolio supported and endorsed by the leading Awarding Bodies in the UK (Namely IMI and City and Guilds).

The whole PaperFree team are ALL qualified assessors and verifiers, as it is not simply “selling a piece of software” it is more about working together to make the whole solution work.  Many factors need to be taken into consideration and only experienced assessors can add this unique element to making the process and product work best for you.

In 2005 the government launched a National E-Portfolio Audit across thousands of learners and hundreds of
providers (FE and T Providers).  In this LSC Audit, only PaperFree was not only placed light years ahead of the other systems audited, but found the following key points were demonstrated.


Completion time reduced from 14 months to less than 4 months as an average.

Retention was 100% for many organisations that took part.

95% of Employers would recommend its use to others.

98% of Assessors would recommend to colleagues.

A result of the Audit was published front page on the TES (Times Educational Supplement) and stated that PaperFree could save the FE sector £1 billion pounds a year in waste.

A point to note is that ONLY the results of PaperFree were published. We wonder why!
