The Adetokunbo Babatunde Sofoluwe Centre for Information Technology and Systems (ABS-CITS) at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) organized a one-day training for all Heads of Departments (Academic) on the Premier ERP Platform for Students’ Academic Profile.

The session was held on Thursday, November 27, 2025, and aimed at enhancing departmental management of academic records and processes.

The training, moderated by ABS-CITS Director, Professor Mohammed Amuda, and facilitated virtually by Mr. Jide Familoni of Today’s Solution, provided hands-on experience with the platform. It allowed department heads to familiarize themselves with its features for effective tracking and management of student academic performance, payment histories, and departmental examination data.

Professor Amuda described the Premier ERP Platform as “an omnibus information resource management system for the University,” highlighting its role as both a Student Information System and a Virtual Clearing House. He explained that the system offers HoDs a comprehensive view of all academic activities, enabling informed and timely decision-making to benefit students and lecturers alike.

“This training will restore full virtual control to the HoD and equip you with the knowledge and tools to oversee all results in your departments as Chief Examination Officers,” Professor Amuda said. He also stressed the importance of safeguarding access credentials to maintain system integrity.

During the practical session, Mr. Familoni guided participants through the platform’s functionalities, addressing questions and providing clarifications on operational challenges. The interactive forum concluded with HoDs leaving better prepared to leverage the Premier ERP Platform for efficient and transparent academic administration.
