Prodigy Learning in conjunction with Microsoft

50 students (across two courses) to access Prodigy Learning online resources and training material and for them to undertake a Microsoft certification exam (Azure or PowerPoint) Free of Charge.

BHI staff who will need to facilitate the pilot, support the students and supervise the exam will receive training and the certification free of charge.

Typically $250-$300 each for the whole package

 

52 x $300 = $15,600

The activity with Prodigy Learning (through the sponsorship of Microsoft), was a pilot that ends on 31 October 2021 with no commitment thereafter as per the MOU.

 

Education Delivery will review the value of introducing Microsoft Certifications more broadly at the end of the pilot.

If it is decided that Education Delivery would like to introduce the Microsoft certifications after the pilot, and with the appropriate Executive approval, Education Delivery would then reach out to BHI’s Procurement function to ensure it follows the relevant procurement processes aligned with the VGPB, in assessing the different options (and vendors) to achieve best value for BHI.
