Popis: The attitude of some staff and students of tertiary institutions in developing countries to classroom lectures and to office duties have been spotted as one of the causes of decadence in the quality of graduates in developing countries. In this paper an integrated Fingerprint Attendance System with remote monitoring, for staff and students of tertiary institutions is proposed. It also contains a web-based, real-time remote monitoring interface through which those in management level can view the staff and students as they check-in/out of the system. With this system, it took only 2seconds to verify and mark attendance per student as opposed to 15seconds for manual process. For 71 students', attendance taking was sped up 7.3 times, and the institution managers (HODs, Directors, Deans etc.) could monitor daily attendance from anywhere in the world.
