3. Challenges Discussed
3.1 Website Performance and System Access Issues
The meeting raised serious concerns regarding the performance of organisational digital platforms:
- The Neftaly websites were reported to be extremely slow, making it difficult for staff to navigate, upload information, and process requests efficiently.
- This slowness was said to be disrupting daily administrative work, particularly tasks related to course management and stakeholder communication.
- In addition, the IDEA website was completely non-functional, meaning staff were unable to access essential information or complete work dependent on that platform.
- The meeting expressed concern that these technical problems were negatively affecting service delivery and productivity of work.
3.2 Delays in Course Bookings
Members reported ongoing delays in course booking processes:
- These delays were linked partly to the website access not granted, which made it difficult to confirm bookings in real time.
- Staff indicated that prospective learners may be affected by these delays, potentially impacting enrolments.
- The team noted that this was a recurring challenge that required urgent attention.
3.3 Handover Report Delays Due to SCDR Titles
A key operational challenge was discussed regarding reporting:
- The team reported that they were unable to complete and hand over certain reports because SCDR had not yet updated or changed their official titles as required.
3.4 Delays in Human Capital Documentation
Concerns were raised regarding Human Capital processes:
- It was reported that Human Capital had still not submitted required documents on time.
- These outstanding documents were said to be necessary for compliance, record-keeping, and internal administrative procedures.
