Like the more generalised MEERQAT app, the BPCLEtool web app is based on the MEER approach and could be applied to any learning environment (e.g. teacher training, law articles, engineering internships, etc).
MEERQAT Pty Ltd is open to selling or licensing the BPLCLEtool codebase to developers seeking a headstart in developing an innovative and effective online tool for improving workplace training environments.
The BPCLEtool app incorporates well constructed modules for group self assessment, reporting and action planning. Its codebase stack is based on enterprise scale elements for stable, secure and efficient deployment to large audiences, consisting of:
- a python 3 django backend
- PostgreSQL database
- React code for interactivity
