FEDPOFFA Launches App For Academic Records, Students' Registrations, Others

Developer Tests Run App Before Academic Board


In a remarkable effort to replace conventional record management with a technological interface, a senior staff of the Management Information System(MIS), Mr. Samuel Ayodeji Oluwasogo has developed an application dubbed “Distributed Information Management System Software” to ease course registration and facilitate automated processing of students' records in the Polytechnic.

The application, which is an improvement over a paper-based grading system, was launched on the floor of the academic board meeting on Monday, February 19, 2024, at the Polytechnic Main Campus.

While explaining the functionality of the app's interface, the developer, Mr. Samuel Ayodeji said the application gives room for lecturers to process and upload results from their comfort zones, calculate CGPAs, and compute students' grades for the courses they coordinate seamlessly.

Speaking further, he said the app equally allows students to register their lessons online, view their entire records, send complaints, and monitor hostel accommodation among others.

Reacting to the newly developed application, the Rector, Engr. Dr. Kadiri Kamoru Oluwatoyin FNSE described the app as the first of its kind in the history of the Polytechnic. He commended the industrious and innovative strides of the developer to make the work of the Management Information System of the Polytechnic to be more seamless.

The Rector noted that the success of the application software has not only reaffirmed the management's commitment to enhancing technological innovation but also underscores the immense potential inherent within the Polytechnic workforce by nurturing researchers and tech-savvy staff members with the tools to create and translate their ideas into innovative solutions.

While describing the app launching session as a platform for robust discussions, knowledge sharing, and collaborative problem-solving at the Academic Board level, the Rector commended the entire staff of MIS unit for the laudable achievement.

According to him," I profoundly commend the developer of this great application, and the entire staff of Management Information System Unit under the leadership of Mr. Okunsanya B.A for their dedication and commitment to the growth and development of the Polytechnic.”

“To spread out the significance of this great app, the Unit should engage all the HoDs, Deans, and Directors to identify mutual areas of interest and ensure the success of the application,” he added.
