The education space has long faced an uphill battle across funding, access to resources, digital transformation complexities and legacy architectures. At every level of the education system, it has become critical for institutions to embrace digital transformation so as to provide students with enhanced learning capabilities, remote and hybrid learning environments, and access to a wealth of digital skills and tools. Many have already set foot on this path; others are still looking for the best way forward to ensure they empower students and educators while enhancing resources and education within tight budgets and creaking systems.
Education institutions need the right technology in the hands of students and educators alongside the right strategy to ensure they achieve sustainable digital transformation that aligns with strategies and costs.
This means taking a more modular and incremental approach that combines technology with strategy.
Education institutions have invested into their architecture and don’t want to walk away from this completely but they also don’t want to be stuck with technology that isn’t up to the demands of the modern world. To resolve this, education institutions can take a modular approach that incrementally evolves existing technology towards more agile and modern architecture. They can also use modern technologies capable of sitting on top of legacy systems and providing the services they need.
This approach allows for education institutions to enjoy all the benefits of digital transformation without a high user learning curve, expenditure or disruption.
Mint, with our proven background in education and a clearly defined portfolio of products aligned with the sector and its unique requirements, can help education institutions innovate and empower through technologies implemented intelligently. We combine strategy with technology in two key ways:
01: We use the ProActive approach
This approach uses the ProActive offering that takes the latest advances in technology and solutions into account and then assesses how these can add value to the education institution to ensure that any investment is aligned with business priorities to ensure value and relevance. Â We assess your environment, skillsets, goals and objectives to see what will empower you and what implementation approach is needed to deliver the right levels of digital transformation.
02: We focus on what will empower you
This means implementing dynamic learning experiences that are driven by increased collaboration through Microsoft Office 365 technologies, improved visibility into student and staff engagement through analytics, improved grant and donor management, real-time service delivery, and streamlined operations.
Mint can help education institutions find their groove with technologies that fit within their existing architecture and allow for them to further their strategic ambitions and refine engagements with stakeholders, staff and students.
