Rely on Exam Scheduler to eliminate the headaches that constantly come along with the examination periods.

SETUP

Exam Scheduler requires basic, minimal set-up parameters. It also requires essential student course registration data, which it reads either from the student information system or from external data files (txt, Excel, rtf).

Parameters

• Define the number of examination periods per day (for example, four 3-hr sessions per day)
• Define the maximum total number of students that may sit for exams at any given period

Data

• Student ID’s and the courses for which they registered

 

SCHEDULING ENGINE

Once the set-up is complete and the data imported, run Exam Scheduler to automatically generate 100% conflict-free examination schedules, where no student is allocated more than one exam at the same time.

Moreover, the back-to-back engine of Exam Scheduler guarantees that students sit for minimal number of exams per day.

Once the exam schedule is generated, the Scheduler allows the user to manually change results, which might be needed to meet some new demands that just came up.
