The Challenges

Facing high volumes of incoming applications, South Essex College were faced with the need for high speed conversion. The ability to download and print in bulk at the click of a button was paramount to the application management process, as was the need for a highly automated online system that works.

With multiple courses and different assessment routes for each course, they needed a system that could respond to the challenges of the Further and Higher Education Sectors in an affordable budget, with measurable efficiency gains.

The College ideally needed a system that would allow integration into their existing and already extensive course database, acting as a Course Finder to support applicants on their journey into education at South Essex.
