The Platform

Built for the ambitions of higher education. PebblePad provides educators with powerful tools to support learning, teaching and assessment at scale.

The Learning Journey Platform

PebblePad is the only eportfolio, workbook and assessment platform unifying the entire learning journey.

Our platform seamlessly supports all activities, from the classroom to work experiences and even temporary endeavours like study abroad. It’s a vital tool for institutions committed to fostering holistic, well-prepared graduates who are ready to thrive in the ever-changing world of work.

Powerful teaching, learning and assessment tools

Since 2004 we’ve been building software that helps universities support, guide and develop students – from induction to graduation and beyond. Our comprehensive eportfolio, workbook and assessment platform helps learners to plan for, record and reflect on learning experiences, and collect, curate, share and showcase evidence of their evolving capabilities.

Planning and preparing

Default action plans, or customised templates and workbooks prompt students to assess where they are, where they want to go, and how to get there.

Mission Possible: The DNA of a bespoke professional development program

Talk description: The diversity of students in higher education dictates that there cannot (and should not) be a single ‘silver bullet’ approach to address the complex challenge of career readiness learning. However, the reality of modern university structures is that delivering bespoke experiences for each student is a challenge in and of itself.  And yet, all things are possible with creative use of PebblePad to streamline delivery (for the university) and make it highly personalised (for the student).

Education is an Experience That Should Be Designed

Talk description: We have any number of problems and opportunities as universities, and universities must adapt to help students from diverse backgrounds develop the knowledge and skills they need to thrive and make a positive impact in the world.
