ASCENDER Connect – This month I sat down with Faiz Mian

This month I sat down with Faiz Mian, ASCENDER Student Software Development Manager, to discuss his work. Faiz has a master’s degree in Computer Science and has been working with computer software for 18 years. He enjoys the challenge of building new applications and finding ways to bring a better user experience to the clients. Faiz shared the following highlights from the Fall of 2020: implementation of the application for Charter School Waitlist and Industry-Based Certification data collection, both mandated by the Texas Education Agency. He also shared that it was exciting to complete the Elementary Skills-Based Report Cards on TeacherPortal & the Spanish StudentPortal. The ASCENDER ParentPortal already had a Spanish counterpart to the English portal and it was satisfying to be able to meet the needs of our Spanish speaking students across the state as well. Faiz looks forward to new API work with Schoology and other LMS applications in the Spring of 2021 along with the implementation of a new Document Storage platform, and the implementation of Ed-Fi which allows school districts and the state to achieve data interoperability.
