Digital Signage Expo (DSE) has announced a free webinar series covering specific business verticals and their efforts to manage digital signage networks during the time of COVID-19. The first installment — for higher education — is entitled “Impact of COVID-19 on Higher Ed Digital Signage Networks” and will be presented Tuesday, June 2, at 2 p.m. EDT.

Rhea Kelly, executive editor for campus technology, will moderate this 60-minute session to benefit higher education technologists, marketing specialists and communications professionals responsible for their institution’s digital signage communications network.

Featured discussion leaders include:

• Stephen Stavar, digital signage specialist, West Virginia University
• Nate Morris, services lead, University of Nebraska
• Jon Cheatwood, AV technician, University of Notre Dame
• Elizabeth Cornell, director, IT communications, Fordham University

The webinar will discuss how higher education professionals are currently leveraging digital signage infrastructures outside of their physical campuses, and how they foresee using digital signage differently when classes return to campus.

Attendees will learn:

• How their peers are using digital signage to stay relevant when campuses are mostly empty.
• How their peers are planning to leverage digital signage to assist with the return of students and faculty.
• The importance of having a “return” strategy in place.

Attendance for this webinar is free — register here.
