What Academic Planning Teams Are Saying
Trusted by lecturers and students across Sri Lankan universities
"We validate credit hour compliance for 120+ modules before each reaccreditation. This tool replaces a spreadsheet that would take two staff members a day — now any quality coordinator can run the full check in 20 minutes."
"The ECTS mode is exactly right for our partner institutions in Europe. Being able to switch between US credits and ECTS without rebuilding the calculation has made our articulation agreements much easier to manage."
"The detailed breakdown — lecture, lab, tutorial — is what our faculty board specifically requests. Previously I had to build this manually in Excel for every module review. The print report goes straight into the accreditation portfolio."
"The compliance indicator flagging over and under-loaded modules was the insight we needed. Three modules in our engineering programme were significantly under the required contact hours — something our spreadsheet had missed for two years."
