CPUES will implement a new ID system come January  2020 of next year.

Central Philippine University Elementary School (CPUES) will implement the e-ID system come January of next year. CPUES conducted a dry-run of the new ID system from November to December 2019.

The e-ID system is a convenient and safer way to monitor children’s attendance in school.  Once a child enters and exits the school and his/her ID is scanned, a text message will be sent to the mobile phone number of his/her parent or guardian which will inform them that the child is in school or outside of the CPUES premises.

“The safety and security of the children is our main priority; that is why we thought a lot about this project,” said CPUES principal Prof. Janet Jaco. She was also very thankful to the University President Dr. Teodoro Robles, Vice President for Finance and Administration Dr. Florence Bogacia and the PTA for their cooperation in the said project.

Last year, Central Philippine University signed a contract with Hooray Communication Incorporated, a technical service company for the said project.

Hooray Communication Incorporated has also worked with several schools in the city that were able to implement the E-ID system.
