Tribal software is our main hub, it certainly makes my life a lot easier. You can go to a single source, ebs, and you can see information very quickly and succinctly about any student. It’s important as a college that we embrace technology. The NESCOMMS app is freedom within a box, our students see it as a professional social network.
