How Jamf supports institutions

Schools

Schools need Apple devices to be easy to manage, safe to use and ready for the classroom. Jamf helps keep everything consistent, while giving staff the control they need and reducing the pressure on IT.

For schools that need additional support, there are flexible options to help manage devices day to day.

Colleges

Colleges often need to support a wide mix of learners, courses and environments, from classroom-based learning to more flexible and independent study. Jamf helps keep things consistent across campuses, while giving IT teams the support they need to stay in control.

Support can be tailored to your environment, whether you need help getting started or ongoing support for your team.
