Abstract
This study about examiner allocation system was conducted at Kenya Examiuation council in
Nairobi. It was clearly observed that the current allocation system is time and resource
consuming and also not convenient due to repetition of examiner to the same centre they were
allocated last season, thus creating the need for a system that will automatically allocate
examiners.
An administrator receives exams from different centers and forwards them to examiners for
marking and then they forward the results to administrators.
Data collection was achieved by use of interviews, observation, reading and questionnaires.
Implementation was done by use of PHP, MySQL, CSS and HTML.
The system can automatically allocate examiners to centers without repeating or sending an
examiner to the same center he/she marked the previous year. Also an examiner can’t mark more
than one subject.
Authentication is also put into consideration whereby the system validates the inputs where the
administrator the only one responsible for adding, editing and allocating examiners and centers
