Digitalization for schools and education sector

The good user experience

The education sector is undergoing significant development, and there is competition for both students, teachers, and researchers. A good customer journey is essential for succeeding with ambitious growth and development plans. Frontkom has worked on numerous projects and with partners at all levels of education for over 10 years, building solid expertise in the entire student journey – from early interest in a subject to alumni and further education. Our expertise, combined with your knowledge and experience, creates the results you need.

80% of Norway’s largest educational institutions are with us

80%

Together, we create a better life for students! From the birth of career dreams to retelling the story of student life to grandchildren.

The education sector needs:

Nettside

User-friendly websites

With many target audiences, it’s important to have universal design, easy navigation, good user journeys, and clear communication of studies and information

Publisering

Simple publishing

Do you have multiple editors and writers on your website or in other systems? Our solutions provide advanced and well-thought-out role-based access control. It should be quick and easy to publish pages and content. Work with the content as end users will see it.

Data

Integrations for increased efficiency

In many cases, there is a need for different systems to communicate and send data to each other. We have developed more than 200+ integrations such as Common Student System (FS), Canvas, Feide, Cristin (NVA coming), Leganto, Oria, Azure AD, and Elastic Search (internal search for studies).

Component library

Building new pages can be time-consuming, and it’s not always easy to know which ‘blocks’ to use. With our component library, you get ready-made solutions for page templates, blocks, information screens, search, content types, articles, flexible pages, events, study programs, study plans, subjects – and much more

Sikkerhet

Requirements and security

In the education sector, there are strict requirements for data privacy (GDPR), universal design (WCAG), protection against data breaches, hosting, and servers. We have experience with GDPR, WCAG, DPIA, OWASP, and data processing agreements.

Samtale

Clear communication

Throughout the year, many people visit your website and read the information posted there. Therefore, it’s essential that the content communicates effectively and conveys the message clearly. Our writers are also trained in plain language.

Competition for students has intensified, and new channels like TikTok and Snapchat are the way to reach the youth. We assist schools with recruitment and online visibility.
