A very happy new year to all our partners, clients and users.

We have been interfacing with the Pune Zilla Parishad (a maharashtra government offshoot) in enabling our My Open Campus platform for their teachers. Zilla Parishad has about 13,000 teachers who are spread across 13 districts or Talukas. The Head Office is in Pune and they will be using My Open Campus as a collaboration platform to get feedback, push training courses and upskill their teachers.

How does our platform help?

Here’s the case study – The education head at Pune Zilla Parishad wants to get feedback from the teachers about a new curriculum – they currently send a SMS to the teachers who then have to fill out paper forms from remote locations. These forms are then collated and a MIS report generated. The procedure takes about a few weeks to complete and is very labour intensive.

Our Solution – We have given them a feedback form inside My Open Campus which allows them to send a SMS across their teachers, the teachers log into the system and update the feedback form. The time taken for this exercise – about 2 days.

The Head Office is now in direct contact with the Block officers through our system. They can interact, chat and videoconference across Districts which results in time being saved and increases the efficiency of the entire flow.

The MOC team is honoured to be a part of this initiative and we will be adding more features based on the feedback from the end users.

Again a very happy 2012 to everyone.
