Welcome to our TRACS Resource collection of instructional materials, including how-to documents and guides. These are aimed at helping users navigate TRACS effectively.

What is TRACS?

TRACS stands for TASC’s Reporting, Assessment and Certification System.

TRACS is a complete student management system, used by TASC to manage student assessment and certification data and to support the management of Tasmanian senior secondary school results.

TRACS streamlines the management of student information and results through a portal.  It is easy to use and simplifies the process for school registration, scope submission, correspondence and management of student data.

Who uses TRACS?

  • Teachers in schools
  • Principals and TASC Liaison Officers (TLOs)
  • Administration staff in schools that support TASC processes
  • Registered training organisations (RTOs) who work and communicate with TASC for the management of data, assessment and certification of senior secondary students in Tasmania.

TRACS Superusers

TRACS Superusers are staff members in schools who have been identified as having a key role within TRACS and use it frequently as part of their role. They can be a good source of advice and support in your use of the system. Superusers have access to areas within TRACS that are not accessible by teachers or other staff members. Superusers are TLOs, Principals, administration staff and IT staff who manage or are involved in school registration, scope, enrolling students (in non-government schools) and communicating with TASC.

What does TRACS do?

There are six key features of TRACS:

  1. TRACS portal – an online communication platform that makes it easy for schools to communicate with TASC, track and manage student data (such as enrolment and results).
  2. TRACS central database – an online database that securely manages student, school and teacher information and is the source of identity data for all students registered with TASC in Tasmania.
  3. TRACS customer relationship management system – an online system that manages all the interactions, data and assessment information about students, making it easy to access up-to-date information throughout the year.
  4. TRACS exam control centre – an online system which combines all the practical planning for TASC exams including developing papers, managing exam centres, markers, supervisors and numbers of students sitting exams.
  5. TRACS assessment database – an online database where assessment data for all students is entered and used to formulate results for TASC certificates and qualifications.
  6. TRACS reporting – a system with capability to manage student data for senior secondary attainment and other government reporting including a new business intelligence reporting ability to ensure continued reliability and integrity of all TASC data.

See Online safety net tests – Everyday Adult Standards for details on how schools register students for the tests using TRACS.
