UNIT-e Tools for Active Directory

LDAP Integration

Capita FHE’s UNIT-e Tools for Active Directory provide a rapid method of generating student network accounts on Microsoft Active Directory servers. Using a single sign-in, staff can access UNIT-e via the client or web based applications. Secure access to UNIT-e data can be provided to all through active directory filters, facilitating the development of self-service solutions for your students.

Student account creation
UNIT-e monitors the requests and creates secure accounts for students requiring an active directory network account using personal information contained within the UNIT-e system.

Single sign-in staff access
UNIT-e can authenticate staff against their active directory network account.  This login acts as a single sign-in to access securely all data within the UNIT-e system.


Key benefits of LDAP Integration

  • Rapid creation of student accounts – by integrating network account creation with the enrolment process, the speed and accuracy of network account creation is improved
  • Reduced barriers to information access – using of a single sign-in this reduces barriers to staff
  • Improved self-service options for students – providing access to their information, active directory access meets the needs of the Data Protection Act and Freedom of Information Act, improving the quality of data stored.

Testimonials

  • Barking College

    “UNIT-e has been easier to set up than other MIS that we have worked with. This is partly because of its flexibility although at times it seems to be too flexible, if that’s possible!”
