ExamTool is an internal software solution developed for The Hague University of Applied Sciences to modernise the exam hall process. Previously, student check-ins and seating assignments were managed through outdated and error-prone Excel sheets. The goal of ExamTool was to replace this workflow with a faster, more reliable system that reduces manual work, improves accuracy, and gives exam coordinators real-time insight into attendance during exams.

We collaborated closely with new designers on the UI/UX and took full ownership of the development phase. We designed and built a system that automatically imports student data, eliminating manual data entry entirely. We also implemented a scanning flow where students check in by scanning their student card—similar to a supermarket checkout—after which they instantly see their seat number and colour on a screen. At the same time, the system registers arrivals in real time, giving exam staff live insight into attendance, late arrivals, and no-shows. The software was successfully tested during pilot exams with over 300 students, where the application ran smoothly and proved its value in a real exam setting.
