Abstract
Objectives: To create a hardware and software tool that can be used for monitoring the faculty attendance and to generate customized reports. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The Bluetooth Low Level Energy (BLE) beacons would be set as stationary device that has proximity unique identifier. Once the smartphone of the faculty is within the range of the beacon, it can then record the faculty’s attendance. Calibrated beacon range makes the proposed design unique in terms of addressing common attendance tracking issues. Also, an automated attendance monitoring tailored based on the periodic report the Human Resource (HR) of the university. The researchers conducted a testing in the laboratory classrooms to check the functionality and reliability of the automated attendance monitoring. Findings: Based on the testing conducted, the system is capable to detect the faculty once he/she is inside the classroom, records his/her attendance and generates reports. The mean percentage error is 8.02% which means that the BLE beacon is acceptable in detecting the faculty’s smartphone prior entering to his/her class.

Summary
The attendance of a teacher is an important part in teaching-learning process. Study revealed that teacher attendance had a significant impact on students’ learning. Teachers with lower absenteeism had students scoring better on achievements tests, when compared to their counterpart(1). Some universities in the Philippines today still uses the traditional pencil and paper to check the faculty’s attendance which are compiled manually for record keeping. Universities such as Loyola Schools of Ateneo de Manila University, Holy Trinity College of General Santos City, University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines (USTP) use manual system in monitoring the attendance of the faculty in the college department.
