Mission-Critical Software: Secure - Reliable - Robust - Scalable
Parnassus supports the core business functions of an awarding organisation: qualification management, approved centres, learner registration, entry of achievement through to certification. A portal-style solution which can be used by internal staff and, with our sophisticated security structure, any function can be made available to centres, EQA's, assessors and other external users. Parnassus is the only fully web-based awarding organisation management system with such an extensive range of functions.
