Exam Planner

Conflict-aware exam scheduling and invigilator assignment.

Overview

The exam period, planned from the course schedule

Exam Planner extends the Scheduler core into the exam period. It uses course schedules, student enrolment, room availability, exam slots, faculty availability and institutional rules to generate feasible, conflict-aware exam plans.

Plan midterms, finals, make-up exams and custom exam periods. Rooms, student conflicts, exam roles and invigilators are coordinated in one workflow.

Exam Scheduler after a completed run, showing total, conflict-free and unscheduled exams, and a table of exams by day and slot.

Workflow

Three steps, one plan

  1. Exam scheduling

    Generate an exam timetable that keeps students with shared courses out of the same slot.

  2. Classroom assignment

    Place each exam in a suitable room by capacity, campus and category.

  3. Invigilator assignment

    Assign invigilators by availability, eligibility and current duty load.
