The Examination Officers Association and Redstone Managed Solutions have formed a partnership to further develop Redstone's webXchange-ems examination software. webXchange-ems is built by the same team that provide the highly successful webXchange. webXchange-ems provides an examination management solution for small examination centres or examination centres with no other administrative back up system.
To meet the needs of its members the EOA tries to encourage developers to tackle areas and issues that affect the role and activities of exams office personnel.
There are a number of centres that have to manage their exams systems manually and do not have access to or cannot afford complex office management systems. Redstone Managed Solutions have developed a product for low end users and are inviting members to play an active part in developing this system without any obligation to purchase any future systems.
A pilot study will be carried out which gives free access to the software to all centres in the pilot group. Feedback will be obtained from all these centres.
Additionally a discount is offered to all members of the EOA who wish to take up new subscriptions to any of the Redstone webXchange products.
Many centres have already registered their interest in taking part in the pilot study but if you are interested please contact the EOA office for any further information and registration.
