Use your university’s iPads to capture students' details at student recruitment events, even with no WiFi. MobileEventPad is for Student Recruitment teams working for universities and colleges who need to capture students' details at HE and FE recruitment events anywhere in the world. On an iPad. Even with no WiFi. MobileEventPad makes it easy to capture each enquirer’s name, address, email, mobile, year of entry, course of interest and much more magical information at recruitment events. You decide which events you are attending, what information to collect, and how each enquiry form looks. Then just ask each student who comes to your stand to tap in their details. These are stored temporarily on your iPad during the recruitment event, and are then synchronised off your iPad and up into your Student CRM when you next get an Internet connection. The beauty is you don’t even need an internet connection to start collecting students' details. Simply capture, sync and send our automated emails or SMSs, whilst you go to the next event. All you need to get started is a paid subscription to MobileEventPad running in your Student CRM account. Yay! So not only do you eliminate the risk of ever leaving students’ names and numbers on the train on the way home, you no longer have to type up scrappy notes or waste time deciphering other people’s handwriting. What’s more, you comply with the new Data Protection Act 2018 and the GDPR, keeping students’ details safe and secure, and collecting proper GDPR consents and topics.
