Bangkok--4 Aug--Thana Burin Asia Pacific
Thailand’s only fully-integrated communications carrier and convergence lifestyle solutions leader, True Corporation Plc, has introduced its latest solution service ‘Smart Education Solution’ to increase educational business capabilities with the use of ‘Smart Card.’ It also helps strengthen links between educational institutions, students and their parents by providing updated information from the educational institution to parents, and monitors the children’s activities so parents are assured of their children’s safety at all times.
Mr Siripoj Kunakornphan, Director for SME Solutions of True Corporation Plc, said “True has further strengthened its SME Solution business by introducing Smart Education Solution to increase its competitiveness in the educational sector by using the E-document system in electronic form to reduce the use of paper and filed documents. With this solution, it is very easy to forward document files to any destination through the Internet/Intranet systems as well as Management Information System (MIS) or other related working and management systems such as human resources, accounting, finance, budget, reimbursement, and purchasing systems within the educational institutions. This communication system is efficient and easy to connect with other systems inside or outside the educational institutions through fixed line telephones, mobile phones, SMS, leased line/digital or Ethernet networks. Furthermore, it can cope with high volumes of communication within the educational institutions, focusing on security and data quality, IVR as well as security systems through the CCTV camera.
In addition, True SME Smart Education Solution is ideal for parents who are concerned about their children’s safety especially for those whose children are at the kindergarten or primary school levels. The Smart Card can record all data related to their children such as various activities when their children are transported to and from the school. For every activity, parents will receive an SMS to get an update. The Smart Card also records the student’s class attendance. Moreover, it can be used as a Debit Card for children to buy their meals or any other school item. This is an additional payment channel besides the True Money service offered by True Move. Most important, it is safe and can help prevent children from spending money other than for necessities. Parents can also access the information with educational institutions easily and efficiently, and can get updates about their children’s activities via the website or by mobile phones all the time.
With this system, school or university students are able to register for their classes in advance via the Internet. They can also make payment over the Internet or by True Move mobile phones. After doing so, they will receive a receipt instantly and can also study via the E-learning system.
“Smart Education Solution by True completely links all data between educational institutions, students and parents together using the most advanced technology available while ensuring total safety and security. True is committed to the development of new solutions to meet the needs of educational institutions to help increase revenue, reduce operational costs and provide convenience,” Mr Siripoj concluded.
