Announcement posted by Elcom Technology 21 Nov 2017

Centralised information and learning hub available anytime and anywhere for K12 and higher education institutions

Sydney, NSW: Elcom Technology (Elcom), a leading Digital Engagement Platform providing digital experiences through portals, intranet and website solutions to over 1 million end users, announced their partnership with Canvas by Instructure, the open online learning management system (LMS) that makes teaching and learning easier. This partnership offers students, parents and educators access to a centralised information and learning hub, available anytime, from any location. 

Elcom is known for its easy-to-use, mobile-friendly parent, student, staff, teacher and alumni portals. Users are presented with personalised dashboards, displaying the latest news and events tailored to their specific roles, as well as individual content including timetables, online forms, assessments and reports. Moreover, Elcom portals are capable of pulling in and displaying data from third party school and university systems. 

“This new integration enables the Elcom portal to surface relevant information from the Canvas LMS including upcoming exams, most recent marks and much more. This provides parents and students with a one-stop shop with all the information and learning resources they need at their disposal, available 24/7”, explains Josh Anstey, Customer Solutions Director at Elcom. “This is also incredibly beneficial to educational institutions as it offers a consistent user experience to engage with them, streamlines information management and improves operational efficiency.” 

“Schools inspired by the impact of innovative platforms like Canvas can put their entire digital strategy under review. Knowing that Elcom can surface information to end users in a way that augments and leverages Canvas is a big relief for schools putting student experience and learning outcomes at the forefront of their technology decisions,” commented Troy Martin, VP, Instructure, APAC.
