Educators are rarely – if ever – tied to their desks. They are often moving students from classroom to classroom in a K-12 setting, moving from lecture to lecture across campus in a university setting, or might be completely outside of a building at recess or on a field trip.
While every teacher has a personal cell phone they use to keep in touch, it lacks professionalism and can cause confusion, especially in a large team setting that many educators are often in.
Educators need a business phone line that helps them stay connected to other teachers and school administrators even when they aren’t in the classroom. Tools like extension dialing, mobile access, ring groups and caller-ID are highly beneficial in a school or university setting, as these features keep the entire school’s communication organized and efficient.
