EDS Helps Government Education with Solutions to Administer Public Education and Financial Aid Programs, and Enhance Student Achievement
Provincial Learning Network (PLNet)
Before the introduction of the Provincial Learning Network, Internet access was only intermittently available to British Columbia’s schools and institutions. EDS partnered with the province to create the largest centrally managed education network in North America.
Governments today are being asked to deliver high-quality education administration programs to citizens with public funds stretched thin by competing needs. This means that many education agencies and institutions must do more with less in order to meet expected education and budget outcomes.
Additional pressures have emerged in the United States, where many states are mandating accountability measures such as public reports and school report cards, offering incentives for performance improvements, and requiring interventions and sanctions for low-performing schools.
In this environment, many agencies and institutions are searching for innovative ways to manage information more effectively, decrease administrative costs, and implement more efficient processes. EDS is the experienced information technology (IT) partner they seek.
EDS has extensive experience managing IT infrastructure for education agencies and school systems, enabling clients to reduce costs, maximize assets, and utilize a scalable, flexible platform to update and modernize services. We also specialize in providing processing and administration programs for financial assistance programs.
