In today's online world, schools, K-12 and universities, need to offer more than the 3 R's — reading writing and 'rithmatic.
They need to provide a variety of secure, on-demand services not only to students, but to administrators, faculty, parents and teachers as well.
These services include delivering classes via the web, enabling students to register or apply for financial aid online, and providing faculty with access to student records.
All this has to be accomplished within tight budget and resource constraints.
