ProPortal (Individual Learning Plan)
All students have an Electronic Individual Learning Plan (ILP) which tracks your progress through your course. ProPortal allows you to access your ILP from anywhere with an internet connection. Once logged on it allows you to see and contribute to your ILP. This includes sections about your studies, targets set by your tutors, assessment grades and details of meetings you have had around the college.
