 Abstract:

Measuring the performance of lecturers received little attention compared to the performance of students at higher education level. However, measures of performance are needed to assess whether they meet their set of objectives and foster an environment of continuous improvement. The objective of this paper is to develop a monitoring system for measuring and managing lecturers’ career development. Maintaining the lecturers’ record such as personal, research details, publication works, innovation, and award achievements is an important factor for the management level. This research proposed a scholar tracking system called E-STRAS. This tracking system aims to provide management with regular feedback on lecturer’s progress and performance and early indicators of problems that need to be corrected and improved. This includes reporting on actual performance against what was planned or expected. The system will proactively help improve and enhance the performance of lecturers in line with the strategic and operational objectives of the university.
