Previous methods consisted of pen and paper, Excel sheets and emails, but they were not consistent. This was leaving a gap in student journeys within the college group, leaving a potential loophole for students to disengage with their studies, or not complete them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"968\" height=\"851\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.idxtra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ncc.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.idxtra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ncc.png 968w, https:\/\/blog.idxtra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ncc-300x264.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.idxtra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ncc-768x675.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 968px) 100vw, 968px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>EventMarker<\/em> consists of simple USB smart card readers plugged into teachers\u2019 laptops.\u00a0 For any ad hoc or non-timetabled session, the teacher simply creates the event on their laptop and gives it a description and room number.\u00a0 The learners then simply tap in and their photo is shown on the laptop screen, and they are marked as PRESENT and if they arrive late they are marked as LATE.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">These marks are saved into the <em>EventMarker<\/em> database and can be reported on as required.\u00a0 This system evidences all non-timetabled studies (that students are required to do) and provides management information which is invaluable to senior staff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Thanks NCC Group, we hope you love your latest addition from idXtra!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>To find out more about our systems, click on the below links!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attendance monitoring software, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/idxtra.com\/attendance-monitoring-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EventMarker<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visitor Management System, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/idxtra.com\/new-visitapp\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/idxtra.com\/new-visitapp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VisiTapp<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What an exciting time for the NCC!
