Student Attendance Monitoring

I am presuming as a response to the value being attached to the Student Engagement System (SES) data warehouse a new project is to be undertaken to introduce a student attendance data warehouse alongside the SES.  This is at the initial planning phase but quick progress is being made.  The project will be in three phases.  UHF RFID equipment will be installed at University entrance/exists.  This will be of great benefit to the SES as there will then be full coverage of people onsite so that those requiring further support, as they have not been on the premises, can be quickly contacted and any problems can be rapidly resolved.

The second Phase will be to install monitoring stations in all University classrooms and last but by no means will least be a data warehouse project to link the attendance data with the student record system and the timetabling system.  Although, this will be a large scale development it will provide a crucial role in supporting several prominent business imperatives that are in the new draft strategic plan.
