There are a few things to consider when deploying and managing Apple iPads in schools. In a two-day online workshop, Mac & i explains what needs to be taken into account when preparing the infrastructure, how the Apple School Manager can be used correctly and how the administration of the tablets actually works in schools.
From Apple School Manager to MDM
The Workshop “iPads in schools” is aimed at teachers as well as IT managers and administrators at schools and school authorities. In addition to the basic tasks and the right preparation, the agenda also includes the very concrete implementation with the Apple School Manager. This includes creating managed Apple IDs, assigning devices for automatic device registration and purchasing app licenses.
The workshop covers typical configuration steps when setting up and managing the iPads with the MDM solution Jamf School, which is widely used in schools; access is provided for the practical part. It is also practical to manage the iPads, find lost devices, lifecycle management, software updates and, last but not least, control over the managed Apple IDs.
