We at NIVID recognize the key drivers in the delivery and management of ICT Infrastructure for the Education Sector. NIVID has developed an understanding and capability for the education sector by working closely with the sector and in particularly higher education and the funding councils that are driving change in the sector.

Key Focus

	Internet technologies also open up the opportunity to deliver e-learning to new markets and increase revenue streams as well as enabling working students to undertake vocational learning at a time and place that suits them. Thus this makes it viable for them to join the classes making effective use of IT and Technology at their disposable.
	The use of Information and Communications Technology, such as computers and interactive whiteboards, can help schools to significantly improve standards
	Freedom Of Information Act 2000 The Freedom of Information Act 2000 is intended to promote a culture of openness and accountability amongst public sector bodies by providing people with rights of access to the information held by them. It is expected that these rights will facilitate better public understanding of how public authorities carry out their duties, why they make the decisions they do and how they spend public money.

A key element of compliance is the need to have the public records in an electronic form that can easily be managed and delivered to students and potential students.

All public authorities, including the education sector, have an obligation to comply with the Act.

NIVID provides solutions to assist public sector organizations to meet their obligations covering:

	Compliance consulting-assisting with the creation of a publication scheme and strategy for data conversion.
	Data conversion – digitization of paper records for delivery on-line to citizens.
	Content management – industry leading software and implementation skills for the management and delivery of electronic information to citizens
