Education and exams go hand in hand. Exams help evaluate students ' learnings and knowledge.

You are either a teacher or a part of the exam committee. And you want to make sure everything is done well.

To start, you want to ensure that students get entry to the exam hall only after secure verification of their hall tickets. And to do that, you 're looking for a smart and fast solution.

This solution should be able to validate the entries fast so there are no queues at the entry gate.

At the same time, it should not compromise the security arrangements. That means while it should be fast, it should also be effective and error-free.

In this article, we 'll discuss how a hall ticket generator can help you do the needful easily. Keep reading.

A. Hall ticket generator  a brief

As the name suggests, Hall Ticket Generator helps create entry tickets for students. In addition, it makes sure that only the students with genuine tickets get entry to the exam hall.

While you may wonder that validating each student will take a lot of time, that 's not true! You will be able to do that for each student in less than 2 seconds. And all this will be done while ensuring strict security.

Not sure how? You 'll just have to find a suitable service provider. And to help you do it, here is a checklist that you can follow:

1. Hall ticket generation

Since it 's an exam, there 'd be students in hundreds or thousands turning up. So, you will need a service provider that allows you to create all the tickets in bulk.

Moreover, it should also allow you to add unique information to them. This could be name, enrollment number, exam center code, or even seat number.

In addition, your service provider should also help you share tickets with the students. It can be via both digital (email or SMS) and physical channels (PDF).

One such provider is the Ticket generator. It provides all these features. In addition, every ticket generated via Ticket Generator comes with a unique QR Code that strengthens its security. Let's talk more about it:

2. Strengthened security

You won 't want any unauthorized people or trespassers in your exam center. And to help you ensure it, you need a secure process.

As mentioned earlier, a QR Code-based ticket helps you do just that. These tickets are not quite possible to duplicate.

Each QR Code has a unique ID. When scanned, the exam coordinator can see this ID along with a prompt. This prompt show the ticket status  valid, invalid, or duplicate.

3. Quick turnaround time

You know how manual verification of each hall ticket can take a lot of time. This can lead to long queues at exam centers. This can make students lose precious time too.

So, you 'd want a tool that offers easy and quick ticket validation.

This is where Ticket Generator can help you out. It allows you to generate QR Code-based tickets. These tickets come alive within seconds of you holding your phone over them. Hence, you can quickly validate each student 's entry.

Moreover, you can also appoint multiple coordinators to ramp up the process even better.

4. Assistance in case of emergency

Say you have students waiting outside your exam center and you to start validating the tickets. But you somehow face some technical errors.

In that case, you should be able to contact customer service. And they should be able to assist you there and then.

That 's right. A good hall ticket generator should offer you the same 24/7 in case of any issues or problems. It could be via email, call, or both.

5. Analytics
