Smarter attendance registration for universities and colleges
Reduce manual work, gain better visibility, and sync attendance directly with Canvas LMS and other learning platforms.
Built for Higher Education
NOA is a professional attendance management platform built for higher education — helping institutions strengthen compliance, reduce administrative workload, improve student accountability, and gain real-time insight across courses, lecturers, and campuses.
Built on Experience
With 8 years in the Norwegian higher education market and more than 1.8 million check-ins registered in 2025 alone, NOA is a proven platform trusted by institutions, lecturers, and administrators every day.
Canvas partnerships and integrations
NOA integrated with Canvas creates a unified ecosystem for both course administration and attendance. When the systems work together, attendance registration becomes a natural part of everyday study – without manual processes and duplication of work. Through the integration with Canvas LMS, attendance is directly linked to courses, students and timetables, so that registrations, teaching and reporting are synchronized in one seamless and GDPR-compliant workflow.
NOA Admin and Canvas LTI are closely linked and provide the institution with a single solution for both administration and attendance registration – from planning and course data to implementation in teaching.

What does the professor say about us?
NOA stores data on Norwegian servers at Azure/Microsoft
Our customers can therefore be confident that privacy is safeguarded and that data will not be transferred to the EU or third countries.
NOA currently operates on Western European Time (WET).
Over the summer, we will roll out support for all time zones, so that campuses outside of Europe can try the solution from August.
“I really liked that we were able to use the app, as it made the start of classes more efficient and it made it easier for us students to get an overview of our own absences. It is much easier to have everything together in the app than having to keep track ourselves or ask the lecturers.
The app is easy to use, which makes it efficient to register for classes. It's also nice that we get notifications when attendance is approaching, it makes it easier to remember to register.”
Hannah Fenes , graduated teacher training student from Volda University College
"The University of Agder has used NOA for many years and has been involved in the development of the system. NOA offers several different solutions for attendance registration and everything in one package. Together with good integrations and automation, it is possible to streamline attendance registration for mandatory activities in a modern way without it taking up a lot of teaching time."
Kevin Benjamin Zeppo Adriaansen , advisor to the education department, UIA
“With constant demands for simplification and digitalization of manual processes, NOA is a perfect partner. Hege and the team are quick and very helpful. It feels safe to collaborate with NOA, while at the same time it is a short journey from a good idea to realization”

How does it work?
NOA is seamlessly integrated with Canvas through LTI and automatically synchronizes courses, student affiliations, and schedules.
Students register attendance via the NOA app using GPS, QR code, numeric code or a combination of these.
Attendance is recorded in real time, so lecturers always have an updated overview without manual registration.
Students get access to their own timetable, attendance history and attendance percentage.
Administrators and subject managers get access to reports and analysis tools that make it easy to follow up on attendance and documentation.
