Deliver a 21st-century educational experience with high-tech solutions.

You want to provide the best educational experience you can. Today, that means engaging tech-savvy students in the ways they live, play and study. Meet their expectations while you lessen IT's load and contain costs:

  • Support flipped classroom learning environments.

  • Help reduce waste and improve security with paperless classrooms.

  • Gather and use data to better manage classroom space and equipment.

  • Keep everyone on the same page with campus-wide digital signage and communications systems.

Over 3,000 higher education institutions in the North America have improved their educational experience with Ricoh solutions.

Increase learning through collaborative discussion and problem-solving.

You want to encourage learning by offering irresistible technology, or you're ready to use the flipped classroom model — where students access lectures, videos, TED talks and other instructional content online before class, so teachers can spend classroom time facilitating discussions, problem-solving exercises and group activities.

We offer a variety of tools to help you do this, including:

  • Interactive whiteboards to display content from connected PCs.

  • Unified communication system apps to enable visual collaboration.

Using interactive whiteboards was associated with a 16 percentile point gain in student achievement.**

Assign and equip classrooms with a few keystrokes

Control costs with smart oversight of conference rooms and classrooms.

When you handle room scheduling, AV equipment and tech support requests manually, it's a race that doesn't always go smoothly. Instead, you can automate tasks and gather data like utilization rates to help you make smarter, faster decisions about space and resources.

Our approach combines professional services, managed services, software and hardware to enable you to:

  • Schedule rooms using a web-based dashboard, mobile apps and email.

  • Measure how and when space is used with sensing technology.

  • Direct traffic and prevent interruptions with digital room signage.

  • Simplify the ordering of AV and collaboration tools.

50 years of experience and best practices. We have a lot of options to eliminate the inefficiencies of paper-based processes.
