Remote exams changed the location of assessment, but they did not reduce the responsibility placed on institutions. A test delivered outside a controlled venue still has to verify identity, monitor behavior, protect candidate privacy, manage technical issues and give administrators a defensible way to review what happened. The challenge is not simply moving an exam online; it is preserving trust when the exam room is distributed. Janison [ASX:JAN] approaches this challenge through remote proctoring technology and managed exam delivery services that connect monitoring, review and candidate assistance. Its online proctoring software uses AI-assisted monitoring to flag potential misconduct, while its remote proctoring services add human proctors, technical support, scheduling, escalation and reporting. That combination b>brings monitoring, review and support into a single process rather than a standalone monitoring tool. For institutions managing students across cities, regions or countries, this distinction matters. Remote proctoring must work for both the exam owner and the candidate simultaneously. If the monitoring layer is strong but the setup experience is confusing, the exam can still fail operationally. If candidates receive support but violations are difficult to review, integrity remains hard to defend. Janison’s model connects those layers into a more complete remote assessment environment. Remote Proctoring as an Integrity Workflow The starting point for Janison’s remote proctoring model is controlled exam delivery. Its software enables remote tests with automatic misconduct flagging and review, allowing institutions to define exam conditions, monitor candidates and evaluate possible violations after the test. The process is designed around the full exam journey: setting up the assessment, installing the app, verifying identity, com
Students learn both inside and outside the classroom, but their progress is rarely visible in one place. With assignments, grades, and communication scattered across multiple systems, schools and families often struggle to see how a student improves in real time. Floresh addresses this by providing a shared, continuous view of academics through a mobile-enabled platform that connects students, teachers and families beyond the classroom. From a single secure platform, students can continue coursework on the go, teachers can monitor performance and grading in real time, families can follow assignments and results, and school leaders can keep student records organized and accessible across the institution. With clearer, shared information, schools can quickly intervene earlier when students need help and maintain consistent progress across the learning process. “Learning improves when students, teachers and parents see the same view of progress and respond at the same time,” explains Matthew Harrington, Co-Founder. Learning That Follows the Student How does continuous access to coursework support uninterrupted learning across different student environments? For many students, learning happens in fragments, such as during class, at home or between activities, and Floresh helps them to resume where they left off without disruption. Assignments, course materials, and teacher notes remain accessible through live streaming and class recording capabilities, allowing students to stay engaged even when they are away for travel, sports, or illness..
There’s something special about the energy of a school community. The roar of the crowd on game day, the excitement of a sold-out school play, the spirit of a successful fundraiser. These in-person moments create lasting memories and foster deep connections among students, families, and community members. They’re not just extracurricular, they’re essential to a thriving school culture. But behind every event is a team of educators navigating rising costs, limited staff, and everincreasing expectations. With shrinking budgets and growing demands, schools need more than dedication, they need a reliable solution that delivers real results with ease. That’s where Hometown comes in. Hometown has partnered with more than 17,000 schools and organizations across the country to provide technology that helps educators do more—with less friction, lower costs, and reduced complexity. Their mission is simple: to provide tools that empower schools to create memorable in-person experiences and lasting impact in their hometowns. Hometown recognizes what happens after the final bell rings is just as important as what happens in the classroom when it comes to shaping students’ futures. That’s why it’s built specifically for schools with a flexible platform that supports the full range of student activities: athletics, theatre, fundraisers, graduations, and everything in between. From teachers and coaches to athletic directors and administrators, Hometown supports the people behind the scenes who make these moments happen. A Platform Purpose-Built for Schools In 2024, Hometown expanded its platform through a merger with Schoolfundr, creating Hometown—a unified solution for ticketing and event management, school websites, and fee-free fundraising. Schools can select the solutions they need today—whether it’s ticketing, fundraising, or a mobile-friendly website—and easily add more as their needs grow. It’s a flexible system that simplifies operations while aligning with what schools are ready to implement.
While generic CRM platforms excel at automating tasks like sales tracking and email outreach, they often fall short in the world of education. Education is far more than a series of transactions; it's about building connections, engaging students, and offering impactful, personalized support. At the same time, many institutions have already invested heavily in tools and platforms not built for this level of complexity. These systems can fall short, making it challenging to course-correct. Rather than a full reset, institutions can benefit more from a way to build on what is already there without having to undertake major overhauls. Cenote Solutions recognizes these complexities and addresses them with its purpose-built software, Student Pulse. Offering unmatched personalization and agility, this all-inclusive engagement, support, and relationship management application enables institutions to connect with students on a deeper level. The platform equips schools with tools to manage and enhance all facets of the student experience, including recruitment, retention, and even mental health support. “Education is a complex space with highly specific needs. Larger CRM systems may offer broad functionality, but they are not built for the specific needs of educational institutions. They're not designed to understand a student's mood or provide personalized engagement based on their academic or personal context,” says Mark Sampson, CEO. “That's where we excel." Student Pulse offers sector-specialist applications and services to the education and training industry, maximizing the value of data institutions already have to facilitate an improved student experience. Its affordability and rapid ROI make it an even more compelling choice for educational institutions. Universities may spend millions on traditional CRM systems, but Student Pulse offers comparable or even better outcomes for a fraction of the price. Apart from its cost-effectiveness, agility is built into its DNA. As a smaller, market-focused business, the team behind Student Pulse can quickly respond to the evolving needs of its clients. It gets solutions to the market faster and ensures institutions have what they need, when they need it. The flexibility of the software is further enhanced by its cloud-based infrastructure. Student Pulse is based on a robust PostgreSQL database that easily integrates with existing systems, enabling organizations to compile data from various sources into a single, all-inclusive platform. Institutions can more easily interact with students through their preferred channels using the multi-channel communications engine, which supports everything from social media to text messages and emails.
