2010 and Beyond – The Communications Challenges in Education

Milton Purcell

Just as the availability and accessibility of educational media has exponentially grown through internet and intranet resources, so has the need for improved access to communications devices, regardless of location or device type.

The issues however have been many, including baseline readiness and in this presentation, Milton will share NECs thoughts and strategies on how to address this increasing demand and embrace mobility, but in doing so, improve the collaboration of communications with Video and business process integration, all with vastly improved Human Interfaces to achieve the desired business outcome.

To achieve this, vendors must have the ability to not only provide such solutions, but to also maximise the investment protection of existing platforms by seamlessly migrating forward from these and allowing the new mobility solutions to show immediate cost recovery across existing communications budgets.
