Course Management

Design and maintain comprehensive course catalogues organising programmes and courses through hierarchical relationships with cost centre assignments, credit values, and delivery specifications. Define programme structures including core courses, elective options, prerequisite chains, and completion requirements.

  • Hierarchical programme and course structures with cost centre assignments for financial tracking
  • Configure course details including descriptions, learning outcomes, prerequisites, and delivery modes
  • Version control manages curriculum changes across academic periods maintaining historical accuracy

Maintain accurate course catalogues feeding timetabling, enrolment, and compliance reporting automatically.

Certification

Automate generation and distribution of branded certificates, diplomas, and credentials upon programme completion with digital signatures, institutional seals, and unique verification codes preventing forgery. Design certificate templates incorporating institutional branding and programme-specific elements.

  • Bulk generation processes certificates for entire cohorts whilst maintaining individual accuracy
  • QR code integration enables instant verification of credential authenticity
  • Digital credential integration with platforms like Credly provides portable, verifiable credentials

Streamline graduation administration with automated certificate generation and digital credential distribution.

Grading Schemes

Configure multiple grading scales accommodating different assessment philosophies and regulatory requirements including percentage grades, letter grades, GPA calculations, pass/fail determinations, and competency-based achievement levels. Define grade boundaries, calculation methodologies, and display formats.

  • Multiple grading schemes support different programmes and regulatory requirements
  • Map between grading schemes enabling transcript presentation in different formats
  • Support honours classifications, dean's lists, and academic standing with configurable thresholds

Ensure transcript accuracy and support progression decisions with flexible, configurable grading schemes.

Complex Awards

Manage sophisticated qualification structures including degrees with majors, minors, specialisations, concentrations, and flexible elective requirements. Define completion rules specifying required courses, credit totals from designated categories, and alternative pathways to programme completion.

  • Track student progress against multi-faceted requirements with visual completion indicators
  • System validates programme declarations ensuring students can feasibly complete requirements
  • Support double majors, dual degrees, and articulated pathways with credit transfer

Navigate complex qualification structures with automated progress tracking and validation.

Completion Workflows

Automate complex programme completion processes with configurable workflows defining prerequisite conditions, approval chains, and trigger actions. Specify completion criteria including attendance thresholds, assessment pass rates, competency achievement, and financial clearance.

  • System automatically identifies students meeting completion requirements triggering graduation workflows
  • Multi-stage approval processes route completions through appropriate authorities with deadline tracking
  • Automated certificate generation, transcript finalisation, and student notification streamline administration

Eliminate manual graduation processing with automated workflows and systematic approval chains.
