Information Technologies for Education
EQAP's Information and Communication Technology support offers a suite of digital tools to help with the administrative management of schools and with the instructional planning and management of student learning. Majority of the tools or software applications were either designed from scratch or custom-fitted to provide an effective solution for the requesting education system or this programme. The programme's ICT team's support services include a wide array of services. SMITE (Strategy for Monitoring and Improving Effectiveness), SMILE, PacSIMS (Pacific Schools Information Management System) and the online Pacific Register for Qualifications and Standards are some of the digital solutions created by the team.
