Description
Let's face the facts – if something doesn't come delivered, it can have a chilling effect on development. Our College of Education requested that we be able to upload PRAXIS test scores. Additionally, LACRAO, the Louisiana Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers, purchased a scanning solution allowing students to complete an online form, print a barcode, and scan this barcode at college fairs, eliminating the need for paper prospect cards and allowing for more efficient and timely data entry. What is to be done – Tapeload! By setting up and mapping the Praxis data file and some creative use of SOTCNVT, this information was quickly loaded. For the Recruiting file – again, simple tapeload setup (well not so simple) and UC4 automation = timely entry of hundreds of recruits that you met yesterday on the road. Based on Student 8.3, and UC4 V8.0 with Rapid Automation Agent.
