Originating as a spin out company from two universities, EventMAP formed in 2002. Based in Belfast and London, EventMAP operates in over nineteen countries worldwide. Our UK HE clients include Universities of Cambridge, Oxford, Edinburgh and Lancaster.
EventMAP’s Optime solution is a SaaS cloud-based suite of scheduling, planning and management modular applications, including Timetabler, Exam, Booker, Ceremonies.
Key features include an AI based scheduling engine, decision support, group allocation, curriculum planning, invigilator scheduling, resource booking, ceremonies management and scenario modelling.
EventMAP remains an independent supplier focused on delivering improvement, value and innovative research informed solutions to a growing client base.
Earlier this year, SUMS Consulting in partnership with SUPC, ran a popular series of events on timetabling systems and procurement. Time was short in those sessions and we were only able to cover functionality relating to timetabling. Suppliers and universities were also interested in demonstrating, and understanding respectively, functionality relating to exams and exam scheduling.
We are therefore delighted to announce a series of demonstrations covering exam and exam scheduling functionality to be delivered in autumn 2024.
These sessions will run in a similar fashion to those run previously. SUMS will introduce the supplier, who will then get a short period of time to present key company and platform information. Suppliers will have a small number of user stories to run through to demonstrate the capabilities of their software. Finally, there will be a question and answer session at the end. The sessions will be delivered as webinars and will be recorded. We will make the recordings available to sector colleagues who register for the events, who are either not able to attend for some reason or who wish to listen again. Recordings will not be made available publicly.
Please contact Claire Taylor (s.c.taylor@reading.ac.uk) if you have any questions or requests for this event series.
