Increasing school efficiency with document management

By Key Digital

Today’s education establishments are spending an increasing amount of time and resources managing technology for remote learning and hardware-intensive projects like providing students with laptops. Other issues including virtual recruiting and hiring, collecting student information, compliance and responding to potential cyberthreats are as pressing, but there often isn’t time to do it all.

 A document management system may sound a tad uninteresting, but they can do a lot more than just organise your computer’s desktop. A document management system can:

Store student records in a secure, searchable digital archive

Use public-facing eForms that parents can complete online

Exchange information easily between staff

Allow permission-based access to HR records

Enable schools to track admissions and financial aid through shared access to files

Now it’s sounding more interesting!

By introducing a document management system, not only are you able to do all of these things, but you are reducing your need for paper. This isn’t all about the environment, this is about your school’s efficiency. Less paper means less mess, less mess means more time spent doing useful work instead of swimming through a swamp of disorganised information.
