Apogee Managed Campus Services Help Colleges and Universities Meet Intensifying Connectivity Demands
A new State of Higher Education Strategic Planning Study conducted by Apogee suggests that higher education may not be technologically prepared for a rapid and dramatic shift to blended learning, and campuses need to do more to meet the needs of students and faculty who have become increasingly reliant on technology. A proven approach is to rightsize their IT operations – disinvesting in initiatives that are suboptimal or that no longer serve the needs of modern institutions and reinvesting those dollars in innovation and technologies that support new teaching and learning paradigms. Apogee Managed Campus Services can help schools rightsize while advancing strategic institutional goals.
“Connectivity demands on college campuses are increasing in intensity,” said Chuck Brady, CEO of Apogee. “The drivers include synchronous and remote learning, the Internet of things, cross-campus video collaboration, and cutting-edge content delivery platforms. Confronted with COVID-19, the get-it-done-now pressure to deliver online learning – not as a convenient alternative but as a critical part of the education experience – has sped from zero to sixty in an instant.”
