The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) on Tuesday, March 7, advised teachers who lost their teaching registration certificates to revert to the new digital system instead of manually applying for a new one. 

The commission announced that it had enhanced its Document Management System (DMS) to accommodate new features, including generation of lost documents. 

A newly developed DMS has the ability to accept forms, process them and provide necessary updates to users.

"Have you lost your teacher registration certificate?  Learn how to apply for a duplicate certificate through the process highlighted in this link," TSC announced in a statement.

TSC advised the teachers who lost the certificates to consider taking advantage of the newly enhanced system in order to cut on cost and time spent. 

The computerised system is used by teachers and TSC staff to store, share, track and manage files or documents. 

It has the ability to track history of the user since the first log in to various modifications by different users.

The TSC DMS is viewed as a component of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems.

The system is designed as a portal that is related to digital asset management, document imaging, workflow systems and records management systems.
