June 28 2024 - 7:30AM
CBORD, the leading provider of integrated technology solutions for
campus ID card systems, access control, foodservice, nutrition and
commerce, is excited to announce that Old Dominion University has
successfully launched mobile credentials on its campus. This
achievement aligns with ODU’s mission to serve its students and
enrich the community through rigorous academic programs and
strategic partnerships.
"This state-of-the-art offering marks a significant advancement
in campus life, enhancing convenience and security for our
university community," said Shannon M. Hurt, executive director of
Campus Life Services in the Student Enrollment, Engagement and
Services (SEES) Division. She added that the transition to mobile
credentials aligns with ODU’s push to integrate advanced technology
into every aspect of campus life, streamline operations and enrich
the experiences of students, faculty and staff.
Mobile credentials offer Old Dominion students, faculty and
staff a seamless and secure way to access campus facilities and
services using their smartphones. The contactless credentials can
be used for meal plans, to make purchases and to enter secure
buildings. This initiative also supports ODU’s commitment to
sustainability by minimizing the environmental impact associated
with the production and disposal of physical ID cards. In just over
24 hours, 776 mobile credentials have been provisioned,
demonstrating the growing adoption and success of this
initiative.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Old Dominion University to
introduce mobile credentials, enhancing the campus experience with
modern, convenient solutions,” said Dan Park, president and CEO of
CBORD. “This initiative highlights ODU’s dedication to innovation
and aligns with the broader efforts to position the university as a
leader in sustainability.”
ODU's Facilities Management & Construction (FMC) Department
actively promotes sustainability efforts on campus. Their vision is
to minimize the university's ecological footprint and become a
leader in sustainability among higher education institutions and
within the surrounding community. The implementation of mobile
credentials is part of a wider set of responsible and innovative
measures that demonstrate ODU’s commitment to sustainability.
“Old Dominion, CBORD and Allegion planned well and worked hard
to provide Wallet credentials for the ODU student community that
will provide seamless access to their residences, dining halls and
academic buildings. In addition, students will have the same
seamless experience when making financial transactions across
campus. This careful planning and hard work will greatly enhance
the ODU experience and optimize operations in the card office,”
noted Jeff Koziol, business development manager – mobile
credentials, Allegion.
ODU's mobile credentials will be accessible through their
existing campus app, allowing users to manage their IDs digitally.
This integration supports a variety of campus activities, including
building access, dining and retail, library services and more. The
transition to mobile credentials is part of ODU’s effort to
integrate state-of-the-art technology into every aspect of campus
life, streamlining operations and enriching the daily experiences
of students, faculty and staff.
