Why Universities choose Apple Technology
University is the place where students prepare for their future. With such a wide breadth of courses and skills in one space, it is important that campuses are equipped with the tools to support all learners. Apple technology is at the forefront of innovation – industry standard across a number of sectors due to compatibility with apps and workplace tools.
Bring Apple technology to your campus and unlock a world of new opportunities for your staff and students. Whether you’re looking to enhance your computing, media and music departments with the latest Mac devices, or get projects done on the go with iPad – XMA have got you covered.

The power of Mac
Empower lecturers to create engaging and creative learning resources on the go with built-in productivity tools on Mac. With an intuitive design, compatibility with existing systems and advanced features, Mac ensures smooth and efficient operationreducing downtime, technical issues and training costs.
With Apple technology being the industry standard in a wide range of sectors, it’s vital that universities are supplying all students with the same opportunities to succeed. With Mac, students can gain the digital fluency needed for life beyond the lecture hall.

The mobility of iPad
iPad offers staff and students true mobility without compromising on power. From lectures to the library, iPad is the perfect tool for students and staff to take notes, research, and collaborate on the go, creating an enhanced collaborative and productive environment.
University staff members have the flexibility to assess, share resources and assign tasks on the go, giving them the freedom to support students from anywhere on campus. iPad is compatible with existing systems and tools that universities rely on most like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. iPad is the ultimate classroom tool - easy to deploy, manage, and keep secure.

Sustainable Finances
At XMA, we deliver bespoke solutions via a consultancy-lead approach, ensuring our customers get the most out their investment. By choosing Apple technology, your institution can lower the total cost of ownership throughout the device’s lifetime. Apple devices retain a high amount of residual value, meaning your institution could save on tech the next time you come to refresh.
We work directly with Apple Financial Services to provide simple, cost-effective and flexible solutions to meet your institution’s needs.
