Scalable Content Management Made Easy
Before partnering with REACH Media Network, Joliet Junior College was using a more rudimentary solution for its digital displays. Initially, the school would stream slide decks to their screens. Eventually, they upgraded to a more dedicated signage platform, but the solution still did not offer all the features or scale the school was hoping to expand to. Managing 5 different campus locations, the school needed an enterprise-grade signage solution at an affordable price. That’s when they found REACH Media Network.
Now, the schools have somewhere around 110+ players spread across 5 campuses. All content and displays are managed by the school’s Multimedia Production Technician, who creates about 90% of the content posted to the school from a centralized location.
Student-Approved Signage by REACH Media Network
The results of upgrading the school’s communications through REACH Media Network’s powerful content management software (CMS) have been readily apparent. As mentioned, a majority of the school’s content can be handled remotely, reducing the need for time-consuming visits to multiple campuses to manually update announcements. Student info, clubs, events, registrations, important deadlines, and payment reminders are just a few of the many things the school can clearly and quickly convey through its displays.
Students appreciate easy access to weather updates, allowing them to plan accordingly. QR codes redirect students and visitors to web pages where they can find more information or perform certain actions. In survey results, students remark heavily and positively on the content they say through the displays. All in all: Digital signage has helped connect Joliet Junior College’s multiple campuses into one cohesive community.
