Our current SMIS plateaued in its ability to service the needs of our staff and students. We looked for a replacement system that would improve the student experience from their first enquiry to graduation, increase our accessibility to information and enable us to better manage our programmes, Wiremu Doherty, CEO, Awanuirangi, explained.
