Introduction
There are over 140,000 educational institutions in the U.S. alone. Many institutions need to do more with less budget and want solutions that are easy-to-use and that help them automate their manual processes. Education administrators know the benefits of a well-designed record-keeping system for education information management. It should be able to:
Quickly survey important information about students, such as performance history, attendance, disciplinary issues
Maintain information about courses and programs
Allow administrators to transfer records between schools
Contain a broad range of data for decision-making, such as staffing, materials, budgeting and other critical management information
