Role of iCloudEMS in Managing in Students’ Life Cycle Management System

No matter whether it’s about school, college or university, the amount of information that is supposed to be handled has always been surplus encompassing the data of students, teachers, parents, examination, administration, results, funds, payment and so on, but, with the advent of ERP software (Enterprise Resource Planning), things have become a lot easier. For all the educational institutions, ERP has become an exclusive solution assisting them to ameliorate their standard. Although ERP is used in many fields but the implementation of ERP in the education sector serves a wide and varied purpose and iCloudEMS with its unified web-based products like LMS, Accreditation Management System, Online Classes & Online Exams, Outcome-based Education System and Students’ Lifecycle Management System, dextrously manages the entire operations of an educational institutions in few clicks.

Taking Students’ Lifecycle Management (SLM) into consideration, we need to understand what exactly it means and what its importance is. SLM is an inclusive data-driven method that manages “Student Success” by covering their entire journey starting from admission to becoming alumni. It is, indeed, one of the most crucial goals of any educational institution that the student who has taken admission, spends the best days of their lives, experiencing a positive transformation and leave the institution with the graduation degree and satisfactory job-offer letter.

 Earlier, before the appearance of web-based technologies, student’s success was very much dependent on a lot of manual work in order to organize marketing & branding activities so that new prospects can be attracted. Other target of that tedious task was to track students’ interests, nurture them through consistent engagement, scholarship programs to help deserving and meritorious students etc. and after all this work, a student’s academic journey actually started. Once the journey begins, retention and progress become the next important goals but knowing and understanding along with maintaining the information of every single student is a herculean task. Moreover, once the students graduate from the institution and start their career, there comes another challenge comes forward i.e. staying connected to the alumni, facilitating a friendly environment for them so that they willingly come forward to mentor the new students who need a role model to follow their footsteps and improve their chances of employ ability and add value and reputation to the institution. So, Student Lifecycle can be represented as a complete circle of an important journey which decides the future of the students.

As discussed above, we can see how it becomes necessary for all the educational institutions to sustain the information of each and every student without making any mistake.
