Ignatius Ajuru University of Education (IAUE) has deployed a cloud-based platform for the management of students’ results.
Vice Chancellor of the Rivers State-based university, Professor Ozo-Mekuri Ndimele, who made this known on Tuesday, said students of the university can now receive their results on their phones.
“Deployment of a cloud-based Results Management System for IAUE students has begun. Students can now receive and preview their computed results and transcripts from 2014 to date on their mobile phones,” he said.
Professor Ndimele revealed that the Department of French and Home Economics have fully implemented the platform.
“More Departments to come as their HODs cooperate to provide the relevant information for computation and uploading,” he stated.
TheNewsGuru reports the results management system can be likened to a banking system but for students’ academic results only.
All students have real time access to their results online and can at a glance know their academic performance.
In addition, SMS alerts on new results released, efficient, accurate and speedy computation of degree results upon graduation are some of the benefits of the results management system, according to the VC.
“Record keeping in Nigeria after even 2 years of graduation can be a huge problem. But for present students I met and while I remain as VC, their records will be preserved in the cloud for ages. They can preview their results from anywhere in the globe in PDF,” Ndimele added.
