Baylor University Launches Mobile Credentials for Enhanced Campus Experience
08 Janeiro 2024 - 6:20PM
Baylor University announced today the launch of NFC wallet-based
mobile credentials on its campus in collaboration with CBORD. This
move positions Baylor as a trailblazer among Big 12 universities
and exemplifies the institution's dedication to enhancing the
campus experience for students, faculty and staff.
Dan Park, president and CEO at CBORD, conveyed enthusiasm for
the initiative, stating:
“This alliance with Baylor University signifies our commitment
to technological advancement. By embracing secure, contactless
credentialing, we enhance the student experience and underscore the
importance of staying at the forefront of campus technology.
Baylor's approach aligns seamlessly with our vision at CBORD, where
we strive to empower institutions with cutting-edge solutions for a
more innovative future.”
Mobile credential technology allows students, faculty and staff
to navigate campus securely and with ease using their smartphone or
watch to make purchases, access their meal plan, attend events,
check in to class and more. This technology is especially
noteworthy for its seamless integration with Schlage AD-400 locks,
enabling students to utilize their smartphones for secure and
convenient room access, eliminating the need for traditional
physical keys.
Jeff Koziol, business development manager, mobile credentials,
at Allegion, expressed his commendation for Baylor's meticulous
planning and preparation during the launch:
“Kudos to Baylor for being among the first Big 12 universities
to move to NFC wallet-based credentials. CBORD and Baylor were very
methodical in the planning and preparation process to address all
use cases of the mobile credentials to ensure the best-in-class
student experience. Use cases included student room doors fitted
with our AD-400 locks. Now students can use their phones to gain
entry with just a tap.”
This strategic move further cements Baylor's commitment to
providing a safe, modern and efficient campus for its students. The
implementation of mobile credentials not only enhances the overall
student experience but also improves operational efficiencies and
drives revenue for administrators.
“The implementation of the Baylor digital ID builds on our
long-standing relationship with the Baylor Department of Public
Safety, CBORD and our partnership with Allegion,” said Jon Allen,
associate vice president, CIO and CISO for Baylor University. “The
combination of usability, convenience and security with this
solution will enhance the Baylor campus experience for students,
faculty and staff.”
In addition to secure physical access, the NFC wallet-based
mobile credentials support a range of functionalities, providing
students with a versatile tool for campus services. As Baylor
embraces this new era of campus technology, it solidifies its
reputation as a university that prioritizes innovation and the
evolving needs of its community.
