Abstract
This study examined the extent of implementation of the Student Registration and Records Management Services as fundamental elements of the planned academic record digitization. Utilizing a descriptive-evaluative design, the simple random sampled respondents evaluated the services of the Student Registration and Records Management Office (SRRMO) with a researcher-made and face validated questionnaire. Analyzed through frequency and percentage distribution, weighted mean, Kruskall Wallis test for significant difference, Fisher's Exact Test and Kendall tau_b for significant relationship, results revealed that the majority of the respondents moderately felt the problems encountered with the SRRMO services specifically on lack of admission requirements and non-observance of enrolment schedule. Therefore, the researcher recommends that a more accessible and convenient enrolment scheme be implemented in school. Hence, digitization of students' registration and records shall be instituted.
