Community colleges

Your students can do the work.
Let them prove it.

Provyn gives students in your career and technical programs a verified, proctored skills credential that employers can check in one click, and gives your program a totals-only outcomes report for each cohort. We're opening a small number of community college partnerships.

What a student leaves with

Proof of skills an employer can check

A Provyn credential shows the score, the percentile and how each skill area went, from a timed, proctored assessment. It is the same assessment everyone else takes, not a course certificate.

Verifiable by anyone, without an account

Every credential has a public verification page, and anyone can check a credential ID at provyn.app/verify. An employer or a program reviewer doesn't have to take a PDF on trust.

Graded the same way for everyone

Multiple-choice and most short answers are marked instantly. SQL is graded by running the query against a real database. Written and design answers are marked twice, independently, against a published rubric, and a person decides any case where the two disagree.

The student stays in control

Students join your cohort link themselves and can leave it. They can hide their location, keep their profile out of search engines, hide it from recruiters, or make it private. Individual results belong to them.

The cohort outcomes report

Each cohort (a class, a term or a program's completers) gets its own join link. When the cohort ends we prepare a report from the students who joined and send it to your contact.

  • Participation: how many joined, started and finished an assessment
  • Completion: the share of those who started who finished
  • Pass rate by assessment, counting each student once
  • Median best score by assessment
  • A CSV of the same figures, alongside a printable summary

Totals only. Nothing is shown for a cohort until at least 5 students have finished an assessment, and any assessment taken by fewer than 5 is left out, so no individual can be picked out. Individual results are shared only by students who choose to.

Facts for program records

  • Each credential has an ID that anyone can check at provyn.app/verify, answered from Provyn's live records: the holder, the assessment, the score and the date taken.
  • Each credential records the date it was earned and the version of the question bank it was taken on.
  • How every score is produced, including pass marks and known limits, is published in our technical manual.
  • Students can ask for extra time before an attempt. How accommodations work.
