Student Management Online alternative: Cohiva Campus

Cohiva Campus is an alternative to Student Management Online for Australian RTOs. It keeps SMS, LMS, assessment and finance in one student record, applies AVETMISS rules through a data-driven engine, and includes a NAT-file importer for migration.

Where Campus fits

Student Management Online is a student management system used in the Australian VET sector. Cohiva Campus is an alternative that combines the student lifecycle in one record with a data-driven approach to AVETMISS reporting.

Where Student Management Online is strong

A system your staff already use day to day, with your processes built around it, carries real value in familiarity and low disruption. If it covers your delivery and your reporting validates cleanly, those are fair reasons to weigh against a change.

Where Campus is strong

Campus keeps student management, learning, assessment and finance against one student record. Enrolment, the learning a student completes, their outcomes and the invoices raised draw on the same data that feeds AVETMISS reporting, so there is no separate reconciliation step. The AVETMISS rules run through a data-driven engine, the NAT set is generated with a per-file SHA-256 audit record, and a NAT-file importer reads the standard export you already produce so migration uses data you already have.

Choose Campus if

Choose Campus if you want a single combined record, a data-driven AVETMISS engine and a migration path from your existing NAT export. Choose to stay if your current system covers your delivery, your reporting is clean and the cost of moving outweighs the benefit for you right now.
