The Context
Digital India, an ambitious initiative that was launched by honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi on July 1, 2015, took the shape of a revolution over the years. This project has an impact on our college’s digitalized systems, and the college performs its best on achieving digitalization in governance of administration as well as academics.
As the number of programs and applications against sanctioned seats were increasing considerably over the years, manual processing of admission had to be replaced with a system-based processing.
In a manual-processing environment, when multiple copies of the same data had to be maintained at different locations, data redundancy and data inconsistency had to be addressed and eliminated by introducing digitalized governance framework.
When benchmarking and quality enhancement was being institutionalized, the documentation and data processing had to be a regular and consistent exercise which demanded a digitalized documentation paradigm.
The Practice
Lunglei Government Collage is collaborating with Hereus Company in order to provide a cloud based educational ERP software and created lgc.colles.in which functions as the following
- Online admission Management with Student Enrolment
- Online Fee Remittance with Payment Gateway Integration.
- Student information system.
- Faculty & Staff Management.
- Course Management with Attendance Tracking and Class Scheduling.
- Election of Students Union Leaders
- Monitoring of students’ performance in CIA
Notifications
With a 100 MBPS bandwidth distributed networking infrastructure installed in the offices, the Digital Governance Framework of LungleiGover has accelerated and enhanced the performance and governance of the institution.
Evidence of Success
Faster, transparent and user-friendly Admission Process: Rank list of selected candidates prepared within 2 Days after the last date for Application.
The conduct of examinations and all processes of evaluations including results-declaration gained momentum with Digitalization of Evaluations; Average Number of Days for Declaration of Results is only 20 days.
Digital Noticeboards, online notifications and communications have caused to cease long queues to avail various student services from office, including hall-seat arrangements for examinations.
More transparency and efficiency experienced in financial transactions, evaluation system and monitoring mechanism resulting in less-paper office.
Problems Encountered and Resources Required
The transition to new processes or technologies in addressing the human resistance and helping people to adapt to change through training and communications.
The important challenges are development and upgradation of ERP software and installation of new computer servers and annexed infrastructure for the implementation of the digitalized governance framework. Adequate and competent technical staff had to be in place.
The college cannot yet provide free Wi-Fi service to all the students. Unavailability of fast and reliable internet connection for the students is one of the challenges faced in digitalizing the campus.
