Abstract

Managing academic activities of Lecturers of an institution is an important task as far as academia is concerned. This paper describes the design and development of an academic record management system for Lecturers. There are several academic management systems but the concentration is mostly on students. This paper concentrates on Lecturers. Microsoft Access is used to design and develop an academic record management system to keep track of Lecturer activities like the publications made in an academic year, conferences attended, research in progress, courses taught in the academic year and qualifications earned in the academic year. The new system eliminates the long line of processes characteristic of the old system with the Quality Assurance Unit of Methodist University College Ghana at the centre of affairs. The reports from the new system are made available for the Principal’s annual report of the University, the Academic Board and the National Accreditation Board.

Keywords: lecturer, academic record, management system.
