How Emerge works

 

 

1

 

Information is encrypted according to the AES 128-bit standard during transfer to the Emerge devices. This is the government standard for the UK. Using this method, meaningful information is scrambled into incomprehensible data that can only be read using a unique 128, 192 or 256 bit key. The overall security has been independently and externally approved.

Information is transferred to Emerge devices from the Emerge Communication Service. The data is wirelessly synchronised with the schools MIS and Emerge ensures that the data is always up-to-date whether it be in a classroom, checking a student’s attendance, showing information during a meeting or any situation where access to a school system is unavailable. The attendance data is updated on a regular basis and can be refreshed by using the refresh function.

Information from MIS
Each school can configure which information is ‘synced’ with an Emerge device. This ranges from core pupil and attendance information to timetable, behaviour and even medical information.

Information to the MIS
Emerge can send pupil attendance from each device to update this information in the school MIS.


* An iPhone or iPad with 3G connectivity will be required if a school wifi network does not exist and real-time communication e.g. when returning attendance information, is required.
