Schools Transforming the Educational Experience with Jamf

- One of the biggest education deployments of Jamf in Europe is in Bremen, Germany. Bremen has been a Jamf K-12 customer for more than three years. Bremen started with just over 1,000 Jamf School licenses and expanded very quickly during the Covid-19 pandemic to provide iPads for students and teachers, bringing them to the first large 1:1 deployment in the country. Bremen currently has approximately 90,000 iPads deployed, all using Jamf School, complemented by the Jamf Teacher app for effective iPad use in the classroom. During the war in Ukraine, the state of Bremen also quickly and proactively provided iPads for thousands of refugee children to help them more quickly learn about technology, the German language, and about Germany.
- Texas A&M University is empowering multiple departments with Apple devices powered by Jamf. With over 5,000 Macs, 2,000 iPads, and 150 Apple TVs at the end of 2022, the University has committed the next five years to work with Jamf and continue growing the use of Apple devices across all departments at the University.
- Zayed University in Dubai, U.A.E recently chose Jamf Protect to secure their fleet of 2,000 Macs. Since 2009, Zayed University has been managing its fleet of Macs with Jamf Pro. Last year, Jamf Safe Internet launched, and the university quickly adopted the solution to keep the ZU-owned Mac devices safe from cyberattacks.
- Scottish Borders Council launched the Inspire Learning Project in 2019 which deployed over 16,000 iPads to their students to help develop digital skills and take a new approach to inspire learning in the classroom. They chose Apple powered by Jamf because it brought together four key pillars - mobility, personalization, collaboration, and excellence. Thanks to Jamf, the Inspire Learning Project continues to scale and students continue their personal and digitized learning across the Scottish Borders.
“Jamf made our vision of unique and personalized deployment for our students possible. Day to day, Jamf removes technical barriers for our teachers and supports the Inspire Learning Project in scaling our 16,000 devices,” said Paul Graham, Inspire Development Officer at Scottish Borders Council.
