Vitae With MaivenPoint's commitment to making Learning Limitless, it has developed Vitae – a student administration platform to help learning institutions productively manage their campus operations in a personalised way for all stakeholders.

Vitae[5] enables the seamless solving of top productivity challenges in learning institutions today. Unlike general Enterprise Resource Planning systems, Vitae has bespoke features targeted at streamlining critical operations such as admissions, enrolment, assessments, graduation, and alumni management.

For administrators, with Vitae, they can track all student administration activities, including progress and completions, in real-time on one dashboard. Enrolment, billing, assessments, and graduation processes are all automated, with instant reports to track programmes' return of investments and intake rates, digital payment management and sequential alerts for smooth and timely approval processes.

Vitae also enables convenient customisation of course applications to student profiles. Vitae's student portal also helps to track all upcoming learning activities to foster better student accountability. This way, the student portal will be personalised and promotes self-authority to take charge of their learning, thus building a culture of continuous learning.

For educators, Vitae enables the maximisation of lesson time by digitising once tedious and time-consuming administrative tasks such as attendance taking, teaching claims and grading. In addition, academic and resource availability are automatically deconflicted ahead of lesson schedules to ensure efficacy of scheduling. Automatic notifications of lesson activities are also shared with students and educators to ensure timely attendance and reduce risk of missing appointments. To close the learning loop, surveys are also available to be automatically issued, together with their eventual results.
