2.          An interactive and engaging learning experience.  

3.          Better learning outcomes. 

4.          A flexible course structure that allows students to learn from any device, anytime. 

5.          Improvements in how to administer student performance.

How AdFixus Benefits the Education Industry 

Own your data

  • Own your data end to end and deploy a durable ID from unknown to known and trace your business endeavours across personalisation, media campaigns and client programs. 
  • Engage attribution analysis to understand the ROI on initiatives in market

Cross-domain attribution

  • Understand your users end to end even across domains. Many education providers are made up of either multiple schools, venues and / or brands. Each of these may contain their own domain (acme-sydney.edu) and then also have a second domain (acme-brisbane.edu), currently your analytics team cannot track your anonymous customers as they move across these different areas of your same enterprise.
  • We see numerous institutions having a third-party enrollment function. It's on these sites you will not be able to track the user journey, pathways into and success for the various paths.
  • Additionally, many institutions have grown organically and multiple sites have been created to fulfill the needs of the various schools. Inline with the digital transformation is the agregation of these sites. As that program rolls out our ID can unite the various sites into a common ID solution.

Personalisation across the customer life cycle 

  • Extend cookie windows for longer purchase decisions, optimizing personalization throughout the entire customer life cycle, including purchase funnels.
