Case Study
This is an integration of Biometric devices, Bio-Software, cloud-comm modules and attendance management software, which provides a fully automated attendance monitoring system.
Nowadays, attendance management systems are becoming increasingly important especially in educational institutions because of their many benefits and the modern digital revolution.
SOME OF THE BENEFITS TO THE INSTITUTIONS AND STAKEHOLDERS
1. Instant Notification to the parents.
When the biometric device captures learner’s fingerprint or face, the software immediately sends an automated SMS or email to their respective parent to notify them the time & date their child has arrived at school or attended classes. This data is then automatically archived in the institution’s data-base system for future reference.
2. Improves Punctuality, Discipline and Compliance.
With this automated attendance system, it is virtually impossible to fake or manipulate attendance or absence, as every individual’s biometric information is uniquely captured and archived. This ensures that the attendance and absent records are correct and accurate without any opportunity for students’ or workers’ manipulations.
3. Improved institution Security.
Using this attendance management system with Access Control devices integrated with biometric software, ensures that only students and employees with valid biometric credentials can access the school or in the learning area. Moreover, the system can alert the parents about workers and visitors during school hours and keep track of them.
4. The minimizing or elimination of manual data entry and traditional paper-based attendance, definitely improves administrative data accuracy, efficiency and reliability while reducing the administrative paper-work burden.
