Innovation Generation Ohio, an initiative that gives high school students in Central Ohio State the support they need to develop skills essential for today’s working environment is rolling out a 30 school, 500 display digital signage network put together by Signagelive partner Coffman Media.
The network links schools and colleges with local businesses and provides high school students with practical career credentials needed to enter the workforce.
Innovation Generation Ohio forms part of the Pathways to Prosperity Network, a national scheme that has been launched across 25 states in the US to help address youth unemployment.
Coffman Media won the five year contract by public tender.
Jason Ault, COO and Co-founder of Coffman Media said “Using Signagelive we have been able to implement a centralised digital signage network for schools and colleges in Central Ohio that can be managed remotely. Signagelive’s cloud-based software delivers enterprise-grade functionality applicable to all scenarios without needing any major changes to the core technology, which increases usability for the customer.”
Although Coffman Media is responsible for the overall management of the digital signage network and the content being displayed, major stake holders in the individual schools have received basic administration training so that they can amend or update content on-demand, in response to real-time situations.
