 Student Success & Access – Supporting Retention, Engagement & Graduation 

 Student success depends on consistent access to devices, learning platforms, and communication with faculty and campus services. When students have reliable technology and connectivity, they stay engaged, complete coursework, and remain connected to campus resources that help them graduate. 

Challenges universities face every day

  • Students living off campus or commuting may not always have reliable connectivity.

  • Access to devices varies widely across student populations.

  • Students rely on multiple platforms for coursework, advising, tutoring, and research collaboration.

  • IT departments must manage thousands of devices across departments and student programs.

 Campus Communication – Reliable Communication Across Complex Campuses 

 Large campuses require seamless communication between safety teams, facilities staff, faculty, and leadership. Whether coordinating daily operations or responding to incidents, reliable communication is essential. 

Challenges districts face every day

  • Departments often rely on separate communication tools that do not integrate.

  • Large campuses create coverage gaps between buildings, athletic facilities, and outdoor areas.

  • Wi-Fi outages or network congestion can disrupt communication during critical moments.

Faculty, administration, security teams, and operations staff can communicate on a single platform with reliable coverage both indoors and outdoors across campus environments.

 Safety & Security – Situational Awareness Across the Entire Campus 

 Universities must manage safety across open campuses, large public events, student housing, and research facilities. Technology must provide real-time visibility and communication for campus safety teams. 

Challenges districts face every day

  • Safety teams often manage multiple disconnected systems.

  • Large events and open campus environments require rapid incident awareness.

  • Communication between safety teams, administration, and first responders must be immediate.

CASE STUDY

Denver Public Schools Improve Attendance

McKinney-Vento (MV) students often lack secure housing and other essential resources including food, healthcare,internet access and communication. As a result, absenteeism is often high and academic performance is often low.

See how the Premier  CPR³ program has positively impacted over 1,100 MV students in Denver Public Schools.
