Attendance monitoring
A hardware free student attendance monitoring tool suitable for all higher education institutions.
How attendance monitoring works
Attendance monitoring can be synchronised with the data in your timetabling system so you can produce meaningful insights and definitive session lists.
Authorised staff are free to create events manually within the constraints you define. This gives you the ability to monitor student attendance, attainment and engagement whether students are learning online or on campus.
The system provides clear information on which students should be in each session, along with additional detail such as arrived late, left early or notified absence. Students and academic staff can view attendance information through the staff and student dashboards or via the student web app. This effective electronic register supports improved student experience, greater visibility and more informed decision making.
