UniversiTools Generates Exam Schedules in Minutes

Right! with UniversiTools Exam Scheduler software, you can generate 100% conflict-free examination schedules for your university in a few minutes.

In fact, UniversiTools Exam Scheduler allows you to automatically and efficiently generate conflict-free schedules for mid-term, final, or other types of examinations. It works within your preset preferences (or constraints), such as: day on which exams start, number of exam sessions per day, number of exams per exam session, daily exam time, breaks between successive exam sessions, and off-days.
___________________________________________________________
Real Scenario 1:

A University enrolls 7000 students and offers 450 courses. By Using UniversiTools Exam Scheduler software XYZ need only input student registration list, which the Scheduler reads from your Student Information System (SIS), external file, or other data source.

Then, in less than 7 minutes a 10-day Final Exam schedule will be generated without any conflict at all. This exam schedule holds 3 exam sessions per day: 8 a.m. – 10 a.m., 11 a.m. – 1 p.m., and 2 p.m. – 4 p.m. And, up to 1500 students take exams at the same time.

Having automatically generated the exam schedule, the Scheduler would still allow you to move any exam from its scheduled session to another one, ensuring no conflict in this move.

The above mentioned values pertain to the case at hand.

Kuwait Bilingual School Selects Skoolee Tools School Management Software

Kuwait Bilingual School has selected Skoolee Tools student information system (SIS) as part of its comprehensive plan to assert itself as a leading educational establishment in the Arabian Gulf.

Kuwait Bilingual School was established in 1998 in Al-Jahra City, Kuwait by Saleh Al Mekhlef, with the backing of Sheikh Ali Al Salem Al Ali Al Sabah. The first private bilingual school in the north of the country, Kuwait Bilingual School made quality education accessible to students from Al-Jahra City and its surrounding areas.

"In Skoolee, we realized the potential and empowerment that it offers to our school and users. We liked the way it manages and coordinates the wide range of tasks which any school has to address on a daily basis," says Ghassan Al Jilani, Director General of Kuwait Bilingual School. "And we look forward to a smooth deployment."

Developed by White Mountain Technologies, Skoolee Tools serves schools of various academic curricula, such as, but not exclusive to, National, International Baccalaureate, and American High School. Skoolee Tools manages and consolidates school tasks and facilitates interaction among school’s stakeholders, including administrators, principals, teachers, students, and parents.

"We have structured Skoolee to service schools in the Middle East," explains Michael Zakharia, Director of Production at White Mountain Technologies. "We listen to the needs and pain points of schools, and address them directly. It does not serve a school much if we push on them software that addresses the needs of others. On the other hand, schools gain from the best practices that Skoolee Tools offers."
