We are thrilled to announce myPECB – a centralized platform designed to enhance your experience as a valued Partner, Trainer, and Member.
During 2024, we will be introducing a series of exciting updates and features aimed at making your experience even more seamless and efficient. These enhancements have been thoughtfully designed to make your journey as a Partner, Trainer, or Member more efficient, convenient, and user-friendly.
Get a glimpse of these remarkable changes that will enrich your experience with us.
As of Q1 2024, the KATE app will be retired and no longer available. Nevertheless, you as Partners, Trainers, and Members can continue to retrieve and access course materials directly from the myPECB Dashboard. This adjustment ensures that despite the discontinuation of the KATE app, you will still have uninterrupted access to essential educational resources.
Please note that KATE for Windows and MAC will transition to a browser-based version accessible via myPECB. The KATE app will continue to be available on iOS and Android platforms until myPECB app becomes available, ensuring a seamless transition for end users.
The use of coupon codes for scheduling exams and applying for certificates will be discontinued. Candidates will no longer be required to input coupon codes during the scheduling process. Instead, the system will automatically recognize if the candidate is enrolled in an event, streamlining the entire process. This enhancement ensures a more efficient and seamless experience for candidates, as the system will automatically complete the necessary steps for scheduling exams and applying for certificates after the candidate has successfully followed the required procedures.
The process of approving online exams is now easier. For you as a member when scheduling online exams, approvals will be automatically granted. This streamlined approach eliminates the need for manual approval processes, ensuring a swift and efficient experience when scheduling online exams.
In the myPECB platform, we will be introducing a new option to the event creation form called “Authorized Testing Center.” You as Distributors or Partners can choose this exam format based on what candidates require. This addition provides flexibility for selecting the most suitable exam format based on the needs of the candidates.
You as a member will benefit from timely reminders for upcoming exams, whether it’s the first attempt or a re-sit. These reminders are designed to ensure that you do not miss the 12-month validity period, better manage your exam schedules, and maintain the validity of your certifications.
A redesigned “My Certifications Page” will be introduced, where you as a member will be able to see essential certification details. This includes information about the AMF cycle, AMF payment due date, CPD requirements, certificate issuance date, certificate expiration date, and the current status of your certificate.
In the myPECB platform, we will be introducing the new “Training Course Delivery Formats” tab, where you as a Partner will have the capability to create distinct training events in various formats. Whether it is a Classroom Training, Live Online, Self-Study, or eLearning format, this feature allows for the separate and tailored creation of each format. This enhancement provides flexibility and customization in organizing training courses to better cater to diverse learning preferences and requirements.
In the myPECB platform, we will be introducing the Invigilator Dashboard, which provides a user-friendly interface for approved invigilators overseeing paper-based events. This feature empowers invigilators to seamlessly download and upload exam materials for each candidate directly within the dashboard. This eliminates the necessity for the Customer Support team to send exam materials via email, streamlining the process and enhancing efficiency.
A dedicated tab will be seamlessly integrated into the platform, enabling you as a Partner to effortlessly create paper-based exam events. This comprehensive solution not only allows you as a Partner to create the training event but also streamlines the process of setting up corresponding exams, enhancing the overall efficiency and convenience of managing both aspects within the myPECB platform.
You as a member can now easily provide feedback directly from your dashboard for both online and paper-based exams. This feature not only enables you to share your insights but also ensures continuous accessibility to the feedback you have submitted.
To facilitate the enrollment process for a significant number of candidates, we are introducing the Bulk Enrollment feature. This feature empowers you as a Partner to easily enroll multiple candidates in training events.
The Bulk Creation feature simplifies the process of scheduling multiple training events, improving efficiency and simplifying the overall event management experience. This functionality enables you as a Partner to easily create numerous training events, facilitating a more streamlined and user-friendly process.
As a Partner, you will have the ability to manage and customize permissions within your account. This includes the flexibility to designate specific responsibilities within the account. For example, you can assign one individual as the responsible person for creating training events, while another can handle the task of paying PECB invoices.
With the upcoming integration of APIs, a significant enhancement is introduced to the PECB platform. Now, Training Events created on your PECB Account will seamlessly reflect on your website, and vice versa. This bidirectional visibility ensures a cohesive experience, allowing real-time updates and synchronization between your PECB Account and website.
In the myPECB platform, we will be introducing a personalized notification system to keep you informed about every activity within your account. This feature is designed to enhance your overall experience by keeping you well-informed and engaged with your account activities.
The CSV file information has been recently revised to include additional details, specifically incorporating the count of candidates who have enrolled in the event, along with the corresponding number of credits allocated per event and exam type.
Introducing a valuable enhancement to our platform – the capability to add candidates even after completing the submission of a training event. This flexibility ensures a seamless and user-friendly experience.
In an effort to provide greater financial flexibility, we are introducing the capability for you as a Partner to add credits to your PECB Account. These credits can be seamlessly deducted from future training event invoices, offering you a convenient and efficient way to manage your financial transactions within the platform.
With this user-friendly feature, on the homepage, you will have access to your Partnership Level Scheme Certificate, available for download. Additionally, you can easily check and track the credits you have earned so far.
In myPECB, we are introducing the ability to merge multiple Member accounts into a single unified account. If you currently maintain two or more Member accounts, this feature provides a streamlined solution for consolidation, promoting centralized account information and ensuring efficient account management.
Experience enhanced flexibility in managing your online exams with our latest feature. If you have scheduled an online exam and wish to change the exam language, you can now easily do so directly from your Dashboard. This user-friendly addition provides flexibility and control, allowing you to adapt your exam settings to better suit your preferences or needs.
As a Member, you will only need to remember the date of your first earned certification with PECB, as all subsequent certifications will align with this date. To add convenience, you can opt to pay your Annual Maintenance Fees (AMFs) in advance. For those of you who choose to pay for three AMFs at once, we are offering a 10% discount. This not only streamlines the certification process but also provides you with the opportunity for cost savings and increased convenience.
Experience seamless Continuing Professional Development (CPD) tracking with our latest enhancement. If you are a PECB Certified Trainer and conduct a training course for PECB, your CPDs will be added automatically to your personal certifications. This not only simplifies the process but also eliminates the need for you as a Trainer to manually enter CPDs.
You as a Trainer will now receive automatic email notifications if you do not complete any training events within the first year of your certification period. This proactive approach ensures that you stay informed about your recertification status. Additionally, the system will regularly check recertification requirements to confirm that you are meeting the necessary criteria, guaranteeing compliance with certification standards.
