Lifeskills Bristol faced the challenge of using an outdated and user-unfriendly voting system to test the children's safety knowledge before and after their visit to the Centre. They wanted to update to a modern and user-friendly solution that would enable easy setup, simplicity for the children to use, and versatile reporting options.
After conducting extensive research, Lifeskills Bristol decided to implement the Ombea Response voting keypads. They chose Ombea for its simple and versatile reporting options, user-friendly handsets, competitive pricing, and the personalised demonstration they received from the Ombea team.
Since implementing Ombea, Lifeskills Bristol has found Ombea simple to learn and set up. However, the primary benefit has been the support they received from the Ombea team. The training materials provided were incredibly useful and covered most of their needs, and the team was always happy to help with any other questions.
Using Ombea, Lifeskills Bristol has been able to easily evaluate the children's learning and identify gaps in knowledge that remain after their visit. This allows them to quickly make changes to their programmes to ensure that the gaps are filled. Additionally, using the results to demonstrate the impact of their programmes has been an invaluable tool when talking to existing funders and has helped them to gain new support. The system has also significantly reduced the amount of admin time they were spending on extracting and creating reports or fixing faulty handsets.
Overall, the implementation of Ombea Response has had a positive impact on Lifeskills Bristol. The system has provided them with a user-friendly and versatile tool to measure children's learning and identify gaps in knowledge, making it easier to improve their programmes and demonstrate their impact to funders.
