/
Swipe, Scan, or manually check-in your event attendees
Tracking attendance is a core feature CampusGroups offers to meet the unique identification and tracking needs of higher education institutions. Live attendance data is collected and uploaded to your CampusGroups account. View, monitor, analyze and access reports on your data in real time, at any time.
How are schools benefitting from this highly useful feature?
Administrators, faculty, staff and officers are maintaining a record of classroom attendance, controlling event access, measuring interest, boosting student engagement and monitoring campus activity (who has and has not participated in events). They're making a conference mandatory and ensuring there are attendees for a VIP Speaker event.

It's secure
Student Card IDs can sometimes be considered as confidential information at your university. To ensure that these numbers are not communicated in plain-text over the Internet, we encrypt them straight on our app. We also store them encrypted in our database.
