A. SIS-C stores and displays student and course data. Faculty/Staff Central offers another way of viewing this data. While SIS-C allows the user to update data and research records, it is not always easy to remember all of the codes and screens you might need to use. Faculty/Staff Central allows the user to view and print certain items (without having to do screen prints, as one would have to do in SIS-C), but only has a few update capabilities and does not allow the user to do thorough records research (for instance, it does not show a student’s previous name if the student had a name change nor does it show the student’s SSN). If you need to access student or course data for viewing purposes only, we recommend Faculty/Staff Central. If you need to perform updates and research, we recommend SIS-C. Q.
