Accreditation Management System

InPods AMS is a cloud-based assessment and accreditation management system designed for higher education institutions to help them systematically collect and organize data required for accreditation and assessments in one place, manage important workflow and estimate score and grade. InPods AMS is designed to support the required processes defined by various regulatory and rating bodies such as NAAC, NBA, ABET, NIRF and NMC for CBME.

InPods AMS provides an environment for academic governance leaders to efficiently manage the process of self-assessment and submission of accreditation reports. It helps define workflows, create roles with permissions, assign tasks, track progress, manage notifications and alerts and act on actionable insights provided via dashboards and reports at a university and department level. InPods AMS supports a library of rubrics which can be applied to measure performance across various key indicators and metrics. It facilitates the process of mock reviews and external evaluation relative to a particular rubric.

Universities and colleges benefit from our centralized secure data management capability. InPods AMS helps all key stakeholders in the assessment and accreditation process to have all the necessary information just one click away and accessible any time, from any place on any device. Our unique method of importing and organizing the data helps organizations reduce re-work involved in collecting and reporting the same data in different formats for various regulatory agencies at different times. InPods AMS is used to import the common data once, analyze, and publish it in various formats for multiple regulatory agency reports.

Segments

Universities and Institutions offering Engineering and Management programs have a goal of getting accredited for NBA or ABET. InPods AMS supports the workflows required to collect and organize all the data required for successful submission of an SAR report for NBA. InPods AMS works well with the outcomes-mapping and performance frameworks and outcomes attainment data repositories to compile various OBE specific supporting data sheets and reports in one place. Examples of such reports are PO-CO mapping articulation, CO attainment data, Direct and Indirect Assessment data, Survey data and evidence of using outcomes data to improve student advising and curriculum etc. InPods AMS, along with other suite of products, makes it easier to compile all this information required to generate upload-ready NBA SAR report.

InPods AMS recognizes the unique requirements related to the NAAC accreditation process for Health Science Programs like Medical, Dental, Nursing and Ayush institutions etc. Specifically, MCI’s CBME curriculum implementation in medical colleges requires institutions to define learning outcomes and collect evidence of attainment of competency outcomes through these learning outcomes. InPods AMS works well with the competency outcomes mapping and performance framework for CBME and other suite of solutions to make sure the data collected once, for student competencies and skills assessment, is efficiently re-used by IQAC director for institutional accreditation like NAAC and generally for effective curricular governance process.

With the New Education Policy (NEP) mandating that all Higher Education institutes need to be accredited by 2023, this puts enormous pressure on Academic Institutions who are going for accreditation for the first time. Most of the small and medium-sized academic institutes cannot afford expensive consultants to guide them in this process. InPods AMS has the right features that allow you to project manage the NAAC process and compose SSR for submission during your first cycle of NAAC. Self-help videos created by our NAAC experts will help institutions at every step of the way to guide through the process of organizing data, tracking progress, preparing summary comments and composing the SSR. Choosing InPods AMS would be the best decision your institution would take to accelerate your progress towards getting higher rating on NAAC Accreditation.

  • JSPM’s RS College of Engineering

    JSPMs’ Rajarshi Shahu College of Engineering (RSCOE) in Pune, India has successfully managed its programs for 15 years with good results and was accredited as part of an accreditation system which was an input/output-based, as opposed to outcomes-based. After several rounds of internal reviews a primary focus on improving learning outcomes was determined to be more beneficial. The idea was to embark on such a journey informed by learning-data. It was decided to implement this change with a goal of building closed-loop system which could be guided and informed by learning outcomes data relative to stakeholder’s objectives. Download PDF
