Overview

What are Apps?

Apps are installable add-ons within eBECAS/EDMISS. These apps serve as integrated tools or extensions that enhance the system's functionality, providing users with additional features and capabilities.

Apps range from adding useful elements such as “Pathways” for student management to functionalities that allow sending emails or text messages to students and agents directly from within eBECAS/EDMISS. With a variety of types available, and more features planned for future updates, users can enhance their student management experience by swiftly adding or removing functionalities as needed.
