PebblePad is a portfolio and personal learning platform. It is designed to help learners, wherever they are learning (at study, work or play), develop, shape, and share their unique skills and attributes for success in today’s world. PebblePad can be used by an individual to support their own learning and professional development, or by an organisation to facilitate the learning of their members, be they students, staff, or professionals.

Participating in the 3 year PebblePad pilot project at the institute, Emergency Management Division’s ESMS Program ran PebblePad pilot activities in 2 courses with the result a collection of exemplar portfolios to showcase.
