Frontier Solutions for Education
Choose Frontier
Our experts don't just sell products. They get to know your business inside and out to make sure you get exactly the services you need—and none you don't. And with 24/7 U.S. based technical support, help is always just around the corner, instead of all the way around the world.
The Tools to Teach
Today's world of education is constantly changing. Ever-changing curriculum and the shift from desktops to a variety of wireless devices (smartphones, tablets, netbooks, laptops, etc.) are today's reality. As educators move toward on-line learning in the midst of budget constraints it is imperative that today's technologies present new ways of meeting these challenges head on; no school — and no student — can afford to be without them. For educators and administrators, the question isn't "Does my facility need these services?" The question is "Who is best equipped to provide them?"
At Frontier, we provide the latest education and information technology solutions, at budget-conscious prices, backed by experts who work closely with you to develop a well-rounded plan that's perfect for your campus.
Class-Leading Services
High-Speed Internet Access
Having the right Internet connection is critical when implementing and maintaining a virtual and physical learning environment. Frontier provides high-bandwidth solutions to keep students and teachers connected and informed, such as High-Speed Internet, Dedicated Internet Access, and Ethernet. Whether your institution utilizes an existing phone line or needs a direct connection to the Internet via our nationwide, survivable, high-speed backbone, Frontier has options to suit your needs.
Wi-Fi CampusNet
Students, faculty, staff and administrators require "always on" mobility in and outside of the classroom. Frontier's managed wireless solutions provide campus-wide broadband wireless Internet coverage for a variety of devices including laptops, netbooks, tablets and smartphones. Whether wireless Anchors for faculty, staff and administrators or wireless Hot Spots for students, Frontier's wireless networks enable multiple voice, video and data solutions. Additionally, Frontier's meshed wireless Hot Zones can "blanket" the entire campus with border-to-border, overlapping broadband wireless Internet coverage.
IP VPN
Whether you have multiple campuses or need a secure connection with another institution, IP VPN can provide a cost-effective, virtual, private network. Frontier can design a MPLS-based Virtual Private Network solution to provide the security and privacy of a private network at a cost comparable to using a shared network infrastructure.
Backup & Recovery
Protect student records, administrative files, and all data on your network in an off-site, absolutely secure, easily accessible environment. Frontier's FIPS-compliant, encrypted Backup & Recovery protects email, files and servers in the event of natural disaster or accidental deletion, providing point-and click restoration in a matter of seconds.
VoIP
Maximize your network access connection by using it to conduct local and long distance calls along with data and Internet access. Frontier has scalable voice solutions with features such as Caller ID, Voicemail, and advanced features like soft phones or Find Me/Follow Me. Let us show you how implementing a VoIP solution can ease your facility's budget concerns and improve the quality of calling services.
Frontier's well-schooled professionals understand the growing list of challenges faced by education administrators. While teachers teach, we'll support your communications needs and provide the tools you need to better serve students and faculty.
Budget Cuts
Education budgets are being trimmed to compensate for national and regional financial challenges, but enrollment continues to rise. We understand that in this environment, learning management systems and educational technologies are under intense scrutiny. Educational technology must not only make budgetary sense but also be reliable and effective. Your Frontier Education Specialist can assess your current systems and determine if newer technology solutions cost effectively make sense.
Merging Physical and Virtual Classrooms
Merging physical classrooms with virtual learning is quickly becoming the optimal environment to educate students. Utilizing online media tools provides added tutorial instruction for students. Considering funding challenges, students becoming mobile, and the growing trend of online curriculum and it becomes clear that old-school brick and mortar environments require improvements to keep up.
Is your facility prepared? A Frontier Education Specialist can show you how not just to survive, but how to leverage communications solutions to thrive in today's education environment — and how to do it within a budget.
