Web-based alumni record management system:

Abstract

Most secondary school lack a web-based alumni system for keeping in touch with the alumni and knowing their way about, they still use traditional methods of recording through media to collect alumni data. The main object of this study was to develop a Web-based Alumni Record Management System for Bugobero High School that will enable the school easily connect and inform the large fraternity of alumni the school programs by uploading events and alumni will commit themselves to participate in the events at will and contact to know and remember their fellows. The system was developed following the activity phases of Rapid Application Development. In this method, the system’s prototype is built following the phases of events from requirement definition, software design, implementation and unit testing and operational maintenance. The prototypes were used to elicit more system and user requirements and to make necessary changes or modifications to the system to address user preferences. The system was found to be cheaper than the existing systems especially in linking up with the alumni.
