Education

Information is critical on campus but with the amount of information bombarding students on a daily basis, it's no wonder getting your message across can seem impossible. There can be no better outlet for digital signage than education. From creating content to scheduling to distribution and playback, Scala's digital signage can handle everything in a single network. Plus, the entire signage system can be managed by any number of people, be it a single teacher or an entire classroom of students.

At any level of education - from primary schools through to universities - digital signage provides the ability to communicate with students, visitors and staff alike. Each year or department can develop its own TV channel providing the ability for students to showcase their work, inform about their clubs, announce sports results, trail upcoming music and drama events, and create a unique community feel in their educational environment. Once time-sensitive information can reach its destination immediately, parents, students, and the faculty at large will benefit from a Scala digital signage system for education.

Scala’s Designer software provides the power to create broadcast quality presentations and effects without the need to be tied into restrictive templates that other basic digital signage software uses. It allows greater creative freedom and potential without the need for additional complex and expensive content creation software. It’s easy and, above all, great fun!

Scala has been used in schools, technical colleges and universities all around the world where it is widely proven, dependable and user friendly at all levels.
