Who is TradeTasks for?

TradeTasks is built for trades schools, technical colleges, and apprenticeship programs that need scalable, objective skills verification in the shop and lab. It automates competency checkoffs and documentation so faculty spend less time grading and more time teaching—while producing audit-ready evidence mapped to NCCER-style performance criteria, OSHA-aligned safety documentation, and employer partners.

How does TradeTasks align with OSHA and NCCER?

Programs define rubrics that mirror NCCER performance objectives and module outcomes, so each video checkoff documents industry-standard competencies. Safety-critical steps—PPE, hazard controls, lockout/tagout, housekeeping, and shop rules—are explicit criteria aligned with OSHA training and documentation expectations, with timestamped evidence for every attempt. Instructors retain final sign-off, so professional judgment stays central.

How does the Vision AI checkoff process work?

Educators define the rubric and steps for each skill. Learners record their performance on video and upload it. AI analyzes the video against your rubric, scores performance, and generates detailed feedback with comments and timestamps for each criterion—aligned to how you already teach hands-on skills.

Is the evaluation objective and defensible?

The AI applies the same criteria every time, reducing inconsistency between raters and grader fatigue. Feedback is timestamped and tied to your rubrics, creating a traceable record for remediation, program improvement, and reporting.

Can instructors override or add to the AI feedback?

Yes. Expert-in-the-loop is built in: after AI analysis, the instructor reviews results and can approve, edit, or add comments. Final sign-off stays with your faculty so professional judgment remains central.

How does this work with our LMS or existing tools?

Vision AI Skills Checkoffs complements your LMS and shop management workflows. You use it for structured, AI-assisted skills checkoffs with automated grading and timestamped evidence—without replacing your core systems.

How do we get documentation for audits or employer reporting?

Every checkoff produces timestamped, rubric-aligned feedback and grades tied to your criteria—including NCCER-mapped competencies and OSHA-relevant safety steps. That creates a clear digital record for remediation, program improvement, and demonstration of outcomes to employers, sponsors, and oversight bodies.
