Welcome back, this is the "WSQ Instructor Briefing" or WSQ "IB" series that you are reading.  This session focus on the "Course Information" for a module or a specific WSQ course.

In each module or WSQ course, for example, WSQ-BCM-310, each module (equivalent to a 1-day onsite course) have two sessions.  Thinks of session 1 as morning and session 2 as the afternoon session for an onsite workshop.  In most online workshops, we recommend that session 1 and session 2 is conducted on two separate days as this will enhance earning.

Session 1

When you are in the module that you are facilitating, look at the top left-hand corner box, once you have clicked the "Course Information", scroll down the lower-left panel to look for "Session 1" which is the morning session for a typical onsite WSQ course.

In each section with click Session 1 [1], this training requirement in Session 1 [2] includes the need for participants to read, download assignments and templates, work before attending the workshop, and upload the completed assignment.

Session 2

Scroll down this module to session 2 [2] or click on the right-hand panel [1].

Welcome As A Member of Our Competency-based (WSQ) Instructional Team

Thanks for your acceptance to teach for BCM Institute.  As mentioned in our earlier conversation, this is a series of email briefing that serves as part of the induction to our new training system seeking SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) or Malaysia's Human Resource Development Corporation (HRD Corp) funding.

I am walking you through part of the technical "Instructor Briefing" of your course facilitation.  My apology for being long-winded, as this is meant to be a detailed set of briefings.

Do note that there are two sets of instructions coming from us. 

• Instructor Briefing: One is from me as part of the WSQ instructor briefing. 
• Briefing by the BCM Institute's Program Admin team:  The team will continue to send you documentation.  Note that the emails are meant for the participants, and the idea is to keep you in the loop on what the student is getting. 

Meanwhile, for this WSQ instructor briefing series,  I will focus on the technical aspect of this competency-based program, such as the eCampus, as it has made it pretty confusing, especially to instructors. So, therefore, do not reply to any of this series of messages except for any questions and ask questions via WhatsApp messages.

If you are teaching in one of our WSQ modules soon, you will soon be assigned a user id and password to the eCampus for the module assigned to you.  It is either BCM (3 Module), CM (2 modules), and CC (3 Module).  Please get in touch with me if you do not have a user id and password to proceed.

This will be the agenda for our discussion, and it is sent via a series of emails to you. 

Meanwhile, proceed to walk through the icon below, starting from left to right. Remember to click the "Back to Table of Content WSQ Overview of Instructor briefing" to return to this page.

 

 

It starts by

• [Row 1] share the blending learning (BL) philosophy and get you to log in to your course in eCampus.
• [Row 2] introduce the various platforms that are adapted to support this online BL initiative.
• {Row 3 and 4] guide you through the functionalities of the systems before you embark on your online assignment.
