Here's what Northern College had to say

What an amazing experience!

Northern College has had the pleasure of working with the amazing RIO Team to develop and implement a new portal for their scholarships, bursaries and awards. We went from the discovery phase to the implementation in just 4 months! What seemed as an unachievable target was completed and launched seamlessly. This has everything to do with the dedication, incredible work ethic and attention to detail from the amazing and supportive staff at RIO Solutions. We couldn't be more pleased with the customized, user-friendly and intuitive solution we were able to develop together. We have already seen a tremendous growth in our student applications for scholarships, bursaries and awards after just over one week of its launch. We look forward to a continued working relationship. One last thought - Walt, Deb, Mei, Nicole and Jessie you are awesome! Thanks again for all your work from your friends at Northern College in Canada.

We are excited to share the news that RIO Education has been successfully implemented at IBU!

Tell me more

IBU has implemented RIO Education as its first SIS, along with QBO as a finance system, which has been integrated with Salesforce using RIO Connect.

Here's what IBU had to say

When we started the IBU SIS project, I [was] a little worried about the implementation process, as all your team [was] located [all over] the place with 12 hours different [time zones]. But your excellent technical skills, high level of responsibility, good attitude and strong team spirit as well as good relationships for IBU IT and business units, [made us] very confident to rely on the RIO team. I believe WDCi is a wonderful workplace, appreciate the leadership by Deb, you guys have done a great job!

The Academy had the honor of being our first US customer. What a great project and a great team to work with. 

Want to know more, check out our webinar with the Academy presenting or another webinar with the Academy and Maine College of Health Professions.

What does the Academy say?

All Around Outstanding 

We just finished phase one of our implementation of RIO Education. The WDCI team is a dream to work with and were able to get us up and running with an admissions portal in less than three weeks. They are organized, efficient and very patient! As a small specialized school with a focus on fine art, we have specific requirements for the application process. The team was able to configure a customized solution that fits our needs perfectly! We look forward to the next phases and becoming a fully connected campus!

RIO is an amazing and essential tool for any school looking for a student information management system that carries students through the full life cycle of your institution. We highly recommend it. Thank you Deborah, Walter and Lean!!!

But wait, there's more!

	Using the recruitment capabilities and new application portal, we are able to streamline communication between our admissions staff and prospective students. Application submission is simple and streamlined for our prospects now. We saw a 30% increase in completed applications the first year. - Academy Admissions Director
	Registration was such a breeze this week! I was expecting something similar to undergrad registration - clunky, frustrating and archaic.  It couldn’t have been more different!  I’m so delighted with all my classes and teachers. Great job organizing all that.  - Academy MFA Student

And after the full SIS was implemented

We ran through and generated invoices for the SURP students today - a task that normally takes four staff members a few weeks, now takes one staff member about an hour.  - Academy Registrar & Bursar

Education First Languages selected RIO Education to replace their custom built SIS. Being a specialist education provider EF needed a platform that could be enhanced to meet their unique business model as the largest global education provider!

RIO Education was implemented to replace SIMS as ANZSOG's SIS, while being integrated with Canvas for course enrollment records and student results.

What did ANZSOG say

We're about to go live (Oct 2020) and I've had an exceptional experience working with WDCI. The team has gone above and beyond to accommodate all of our requirements, and there has been no delays. I would thoroughly recommend RIO Education. 

Country Universities Centre has joined our list of RIO Education customers!

Country UC is a non-profit organisation that provides educational services for rural and regional communities in New South Wales.

Tell me more

Apart from the standard RIO Education features, we have set up a single electronic registration form that feeds directly into Salesforce, and can be used for both new registrations and re-registrations, which reduces the effort of maintaining the form.

With the same form on re-registration, some of the student data is pre-populated. Students can view their pre-populated data and update them if required. Re-registration submission is now made easier with lesser steps, resulting in shorter re-registration turnover time.

The student experience has greatly improved by 90%.

Here's what CUC had to say

“We were looking for a system that can address our existing issues, and we knew that RIO Education would be the right choice. The product features were spot on, and we immediately saw positive results.” - Director of Educational Delivery
