The Education sector is facing its biggest challenge ever in attracting and retaining students against a backdrop of reduced funding, increasing competition from other schools and training institutes competing to get maximum students. NIVID believes that the application of innovative ICT Infrastructure, IT/IS Strategies and Software can streamline an institute’s administrative processes, increase students participation and reduce operational costs.

When pupil: teacher ratios are on the increase, schools can make better use of resources by supplementing traditional classroom methods with electronically delivered education. Today, we find increasing number of schools facilitating e-learning to train students in a highly developed digital environment.

The teachers are attending to one individual or group while others work on-line; and this enables them to cater for different educational levels and learning styles without anyone feeling left out. Research shows that computers in the classroom also promote effective collaboration between students - if there is good interactive content and students are given fulfilling tasks. For adult learners, too, e-Learning can be the ideal solution to the need to deliver education or training flexibly enough to fit alongside existing commitments, so equipping older members of the workforce with the updated skills they need to remain economically active.

In addition, opting for a digital curriculum, means less administration and marking for teachers. And access to real, live data enables students to make learning more meaningful - or "authentic" - and to have a greater choice about where and when they learn. Education can move to a more learner-centric approach.
