Knowledge is universally recognized as the most important asset an organization has. Though knowledge is now freely available from various sources, the acquisition of knowledge is not very effective. More so in the higher education student community, the various cultural and demographic backgrounds hinder the acquisition of knowledge. This happens because there are not enough tools to understand the student profiles. Each student is different from another student in terms of innumerable attributes. For effective development of the potential of the students, it is required to figure out the profiles of the students in terms of language, intelligence, psychometrics, listening skills, type of modality like visual, auditory or kinesthetic, and general proficiency. The STUDPRO is innovative application software which analysis the student profile so as the make the learning process more smooth and effective. This application can be used for designing the instruction material and for planning the delivery methods. The STUDPRO is intelligent as it also suggests to the facilitator on the methods of training to be adopted and the language mix that is to be used.
