2. About iHOLD
With the rise of university tuition fees, student
recruitment has never been fiercer. Universities
need to implement new marketing strategies and
develop better communication facilities for
prospective students and enrolled students alike.
The key to a successful marketing strategy is
deciphering what you communicate, to whom,
and how. Thanks to imageHOLDERS, the digital
solution to your marketing strategy is here.
iHOLD is a brand of iPad Kiosks, Tablet Enclosures,
AV Displays and Slim Clients that have been
specifically designed for use within the educational
sector. Security, functionality and style were
paramount throughout the design process of iHOLD
- making these products ideal for use within high
traffic areas including university campuses, student
recruitment fairs and libraries.
Our iHOLD enclosures and kiosks include a
standard, off the shelf range; along with a
custom range which is tailor made to suit
specific requirements and security compliance.
imageHOLDERS patent pending design
concept also means we are the only tablet
kiosk manufacturer able to display ANY iPad or
tablet device. This gives you the freedom to
choose a tablet that fits specific requirements
put in place by within your infrastructure.
The UEL Project
imageHOLDERS have worked alongside a number of universities
and public sector corporations to develop customised tablet
enclosures, AV displays and slim clients to help engage students
and drive recruitment.
Our most recent project was commissioned by the University of
East London (UEL) to design and manufacture a range of secure
AV Displays and ruggedized iPad & touch screen Kiosks for use
within the campus library. Here students could access online
resources and data from a cloud based CMS. Security compliance
was tailored around UEL’s specific requirements to ensure the
kiosks were tamper proof and durable to withstand their high traffic
environment with 24-hour access.

3. There are a variety of ways in which iHOLD Tablet Kiosks can be used as a practical and interactive
tool that can save time and money whilst driving user engagement and promoting brand awareness.
Data Collection
One of the most popular uses for iHOLD Tablet Kiosks are as an interactive
POS display at recruitment fairs and UCAS open days. Teamed with a data
capture app, your university is able to gather far more information than ever
before through student surveys. Interactive kiosks also portray a modern
image and brand reinforcement, which can sway a prospective students
choice towards your university rather than a competitor.
Data capture apps can be easily configured and branded to collect the
required information. The data can then be instantly converted into any
required format for use within internal databases and follow up marketing.
A great example of this is Akkroo – a fast, accurate and smart data capture
app that has been used in conjunction with iHOLD Tablet Kiosks at a
number of universities, some of which include, UEL, City University London,
Lancaster University and The University of Law.
Digital Prospectus
Many universities now include a full prospectus online or in digital
format. This allows prospective students to view course details at the
touch of a button. Users can even email themselves useful informa
-
tion or links to courses they could be interested in. This paves the
way for a paperless and seamless marketing strategy, which is
efficient and cost effective – why spend thousands of pounds printing
bulky and expensive prospectus catalogues when they can be
viewed online? Universities can also use tablets to play promotional
videos or display slideshows / photo galleries to entice students
Brand Recognition & University Reputation
Deploying a smart, branded iHOLD Kiosk is an opportunity to give
potential students a great first impression of the university. These
modern, interactive products utilise the latest in tablet and touch
screen technology, which is both impressive and engaging. This
alone can have a dramatic effect on the users choice as it reflects
extremely well in terms of university reputation and reinforces the
notion that technology and interaction is high on the list. Furthermore,
a stunning, branded iHOLD kiosk can grab the attention of passing
trade and engage them before your recruitment team has even
spoken to them. Branding options range from logos, vinyl overlays,
pop up banners and more.
