Seminar set on best practices for school registrars

MANILA, Philippines - The school register is one of the most visited parts of the school. It acts as an information center of the whole student body where students go to check on their records may it be their transcript of records and schedule of classes, imposes rules for absences, where they process their requests, adjustments and any other concerns. Unfortunately, though considered to be one of the most essential parts of the school, some registrars still fail students by doing things the wrong way.
