PerfectGym releases new Pool Assessments Module
Complementing their already extensive courses module, PerfectGym have released a courses-based learn-to-swim assessment module that allowed for instructors and deck officers to easily view and access their current and upcoming classes - with the ability to alter child skills - which in turn allows for changing and progressing the child level via in a clean, fast and easy to use application.
Developed through consultation with Perth’s Cockburn ARC and other various local government authorities and designed for the ARC’s launch of PerfectGym in Q4 2020, the Pool Assessment Module is a fully integrated module and subset of the PerfectGym application suite, and is able to leverage real time changes to participants classes and personal information.
The ability to view from the assessments module, medical conditions and profile information, in addition to adding notes and triggering automations to parents in relation to level changes, has enabled a more accurate and user friendly experience for teachers and facilities as a whole.
The removal of the need to run a manual sync or refresh of data within a third-party module has meant that facilities can confidently know that students skills and progress are accurate each time the module is used. In addition to knowing that utilising the PerfectGym Access Control modules, will ensure that class attendances will happen in real time as students scan, greatly assists identifying at risk students, non-attendance and provide for the use of the PerfectGym Automation centre for parent communications.
Speaking of the design of the module, PerfectGym Country Manager Matt Inglis commented “the brief with ARC and other LGAs, highlighted that the overarching business problem, was the need to have a module that was part of the leisure software suite, that didn’t rely on third party synchronisation.
“But what was also a pattern amongst those collaborating with boots on ground, was that the current solutions offered and utilised in the market, were quite ‘busy’ visually, and were quite slow In terms of looking up classes, students and applying skills.”
Taking into account the feedback of deck officers and instructors, PerfectGym set out to design the module with clean lines, an intuitive interface and a fast interaction speed. The result has seen the release of a module which has been positively received across the wider user base, and has allowed for those operating courses to be able look up, assess and progress children in courses in a significantly quicker fashion.
Slated for release in Q2 of 2021 are additional enhancements from the client base feedback, to allow for simple administration of assessment booking, and additional Automations to complement the current suite of multi-channel Parent and student communications.
