Id Cards In Education Beyond Basic Identification

Educational institutions have especially challenging needs with identification cards

as they must balance increasing security threats with diminishing budgets and intense costs pressure that cut across all levels and departments. Colleges and universities in particular face unique security challenges as they need to use identification cards to not only control physical access to buildings and events but to also restrict logical access to networks and sensitive.

Oddly enough, increased demands for cost reduction often mean new ID card requirements including those for cashless transactions. In fact, we have found educational institutions using HID iCLASS contactless smart card technology to combine multiple functions into a single secure card for prox card physical access control, logical access to computer networks, identification for library checkout, transportation and other services, cashless transactions for food service, vending machines and laundry and debit card transactions with financial institutions.

While student identification cards are often thought of as a security component, there are many benefits to be had through the use of identification as they often serve as the foundation for other solutions. For instance, student ID cards can help in providing automated attendance tracking which allows school administrators to respond quicker to student delinquencies.

As such, educational institutions use a broad range of ID card printer solutions because of their varying needs. These identification card needs can range from basic ID card printing using color badge printers such as the Zebra P330i card printer, the Fargo DTC550 ID card printer or the Datacard SP75 Card Printer. These ID card printers are typically coupled with a camera solution to provide image capture. From there, the add-ons are endless with the most common being integration with prox card programming systems to provide access control and logging. Additionally, schools may extend beyond basic ID card printing to include cashless transaction systems. Just as importantly, it is worth nothing that the benefits not only extend to the school but also to the end-users with improved convenience on college and university campuses.
