Safety and security are highly important within schools, colleges and universities. Probably even more important compared to other environments. Educational institutions are assumed to create and maintain a safe and secure environment for both students and staff. Thereby creating a comfortable working and learning space where they can function and perform in an optimal manner.

However, with increasing security issues that educational institutions need to cope with, it is a challenge to meet the broad and changing requirements that safeguard such an environment for students and staff. Not just controlling physical access is involved but also logical access to IT-networks, cashless vending and students’ lockers. While facing these challenges, operational costs and easy maintenance are to be kept within acceptable terms and conditions.  

For more than 10 years, schools, colleges and universities rely on solutions Nedap offers. Solutions that are not only limited to Access Control but cover a much broader scope: 

E-Registration*
Safety and security can be complemented and combined with various options for e-registration as offered by Nedap. With these options presence and absence of the students can easily and accurately be registered by means of using a student card. 

Locker Management**
Besides e-registration, safety and security can be applied to personal belongings as well. Nedap enables students to use their student card to open and close their locker by means of the electronic locker management solution LoXS.  

Vending*
Integration of cashless vending within educational institutions can be achieved using the same method of identification. These solutions are offered and implemented in co-operation with Nedap certified supply chain partners.     `
