LUMIX FP-FGA - Predefined Dashboards in Development
|
|
With LUMIX FP-FGA the Vocational Training and Adult
Education sectors now have access to absence, achievement and
attendance indicators. This tool makes it easier to monitor
data regarding compliance with the MELS board Partnership Agreements
and schools/centres Educational Success Agreements. To date over
twenty school boards have implemented LUMIX FP-FGA, and
several more are on the verge of doing so.
To meet the needs of all LUMIX FP-FGA users, predefined dashboards
are currently being developed by Société GRICS. These
templates will facilitate decision-making; in striking visual
formats they allow users to see the results their students have
achieved measured against the objectives of the Partnership
agreement and other national indicators. In this way, shool and
board administrators can effectively monitor student performance and
attendance in the Vocational Training and Adult Education sectors.
