SOJO HIGHER EDUCATION

Faced with tight budgets, new technologies and international competition, universities are struggling
to find ways to improve their operations and support services. The old way of doing business is no
longer acceptable. High-tech students expect to be able to take care of administrative tasks on their
own time and without any delays. Paper forms and trips to the administration office are not just
old-fashion, they're inefficient.

SOJOURNER (SOJO) Education is a suite of applications that simplify management and administration
of colleges and universities. From any mobile device, current and prospective students of
SOJO-enabled universities can review, submit, update and share documents and other critical
information. The information flows seamlessly between the university's various back-end systems,
including those set up for individual academic departments. SOJO Education also simplifies student
admissions and registrations.

Some of the benefits of SOJO Education include:

  • Optimization of admission and registration processes via handheld devices.
    No more waiting in line at the admissions office.

  • Integration of existing campus systems, which simplifies and enriches the
    learning experience.

  • Creation of an interactive, mobile community that enriches the campus experience

  • Increased student satisfaction and, ultimately, retention, thanks to improved
    service across the university.

  • Grade course alerts to individual students

  • A sampling of the apps built on the SOJO Education platform:

  • SOJO Course Catalog Explorer

  • SOJO Course Registration Maker

  • SOJO Student Course Administrator

  • SOJO Student Account Management

  • SOJO Intra University Library Connect

  • SOJO Inter University Library Connect

  • SOJO Student Academic Explorer

  • SOJO Student Community

  • SITA CORP's Enterprise Mobile application suite, which is built on the SOJOURNER platform, enables
    anytime access to your institution's enterprise software from virtually anywhere on any mobile device,
    including Apple's iPhone and iPad, Research in Motion's BlackBerry, HP's PalmOS devices, Android
    tablets and phones, and more. With SOJOURNER, existing software can be "mobilized" in days by
    nontechnical staff. Organizations see instant improvement in productivity, efficiency and customer
    satisfaction.

    SOJO Education is a networking platform that enhances innovation, collaboration and the overall
    learning experience. Besides improving the efficiency of university operations, SOJO Education apps
    turn students' mobile devices into a one-stop shop for university services.
