Although the new student admin system does not directly involve or record research projects (other than PGR supervision), it will affect the way you work more broadly. It’s therefore useful to understand the system and make the most from it.
To this end it is worth going along to one of two Open Forums that are being held to brief staff. They are:
- 14:30 – 16.00, Wednesday 13th December, Grimond Lecture Theatre 3
- 14:30 – 16.00, Thursday 14th December, Medway Building Room 2-28
They’ll cover the Programme background, timelines, what’s coming next, talk through the impact of business change and discuss what to expect from new processes and the new student management system.
And we’ll hold time for discussion and questions.
In order that we can ensure there is a place for everyone, please respond to this Doodle Poll if you plan to attend.
In the meantime here is some background on KentVision:
KentVision is a Business Change Programme, undertaken by the University to support improvements in student lifecycle administration and student experience.
KentVision will involve refining our business processes, implementing the Tribal SITS product across enrolment to congregations, integrating admissions with enrolment to congregations and decommissioning the student data system.
From September 2018 KentVision will be used for an array of administrative activities across the complete student lifecycle, including everything from student, programme and module look ups to registering students, viewing module diets, entering and viewing marks, approving PGR supervisory meetings, processing scholarships and more.
Students will also use KentVision to enrol, choose modules, access their timetables and view personal information, PGR progress reviews and their marks.
