ACE Portfolios vs Watermark Student Learning & Licensure

ACE Portfolios is a web ePortfolio and assessment platform for NVQs, apprenticeships, and vocational qualifications. It is intended for training providers, colleges, and employers, and the maker says it was built by a working assessor and IQA. Assessors can review evidence beside assessment criteria, map evidence to criteria, and create reusable mapping templates for team use. A built-in recorder captures audio or video for professional discussions and observations, attaching recordings to candidate evidence. IQA sampling workflows and actions are included, along with read-only EQA access to claimed portfolios and EQA sessions. ACE lists unit structures for more than 130 qualifications from Highfield, ProQual, NOCN, ECITB, and City & Guilds, and says requested qualifications are added at no charge. Phone capture supports photos, video, and audio mapped to criteria. An optional employer portal shows selected progress in read-only form. Security features include MFA, AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3, tenant isolation, and Cloudflare edge protection. Pricing is on request, with listed one-time charges.
