Successful step-by-step introduction of PIM

  • Needs analysis and customised offer

    We analyse your university-specific needs and develop suitable solutions. Together, we determine which PIM components your university would like to use. We then create a customised offer for your university.

  • Name admin and set up PIM

    We train your university's own admin and set up PIM together: eduGAIN is activated, module data and reference cases are imported, workflows are configured and tested.

  • Provision of information and training

    All employees involved in the workflows receive training. Information for students is prepared and published

  • Go Live

    PIM is used for future recognitions at your university..

    Frequently asked questions

    Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about the PIM platform.

    All questions

    Please arrange an appointment with PIM to discuss utilisation. The implementation process is outlined under Successful step-by-step introduction of PIM. You can also test PIM by requesting access data from us.

    Please ask your university whether it is already participating in PIM. If this is the case, you can log in to PIM and view the participating degree programmes.

    PIM offers standard interfaces to HISinOne, CampusOnline and CampusNet (Datenlotsen). If a direct connection is not desired, we support universities in migrating their data. Subsequent integration of the interfaces is possible at any time.

    PIM can also be used in these cases and facilitate the process of recognition. The prerequisite is that the degree programme data is available in digital form. An import from tables is also possible here.

    Gerade bei Auslandsmobilitäten sind viele Personen in die Leistungsanerkennung eingebunden. Die Abläufe erfolgen weitgehend manuell und durch E-Mails, so dass Fehler vorkommen. Mit PIM können diese Workflows erstmals digital automatisiert werden, so dass die Anerkennung nachvollziehbar und sicher durchführbar wird.
