The article is devoted to the development of automated information systems (AIS) for electronic document management in the educational field. Using the example of the process of accreditation monitoring of basic professional educational programs implemented in university departments, functional requirements, user algorithms and a prototype AIS (web system) for generating documents have been developed. The use of the considered AIS allows you to flexibly customize the structure of documents and data completion forms for accreditation monitoring, add and edit the required data about teachers in visual web interfaces, automatically generate documents based on information stored in the database, manage the life cycles of documents, evaluate the quality of the documents compiled. The labor intensity of working with documents is significantly simplified compared to existing business processes. The proposed approach can be applied to the development of document flow subsystems for various business processes of a university within the framework of educational, methodological, scientific and other types of activities of employees and, as a result, towards the creation of a unified AIS for electronic document management of the university, based on the integration of all subsystems. The described functionality and algorithms can be adapted to the creation of web systems for electronic document management of computer training complexes (CTC) for collecting and processing data on the progress of students, managing the life cycle of developing exercises for the CTC and performing them by trainees.
