Campus Management Corporation today announced that its June release of CampusPortal(TM) 9.0 will include a text messaging solution for students and staff. At no additional cost to the institution, the technology enables instant campus-wide communication in the event of emergencies, weather, and other critical news.
Staff authorized by the institution may use this free service to send:
— Institution-wide emergency communications
— Automated alerts from academic advisors
— Reminders from registrar and other departments
— Targeted communications by site, program, class and more
This release includes a number of new features to automate back office processes and to improve student self-service. For example, administrators of distance learning programs can automate billings to students based upon their individual activity levels.
Institutions using CampusPortal today receive enhancements like SMS text messaging service and integration of back office processing at no additional cost, as part of their standard annual maintenance agreement.
