2. Tell us about how NE is different from other players / USP of the company.

Next Education's strength lies in its Research and Development that is conducted in-house. Features such as CCE compliance, technical advance 2D/3D animation, Linux-based OS to lower overall cost of ownership and the remote operable system are some of the key strengths of this product. Next Education has unique researched technological advancements; for example, life-like 2D and 3D graphics, voice-overs, highly interactive content of international standards, clear sound and innovative course design which are easily accessible via an inbuilt IR remote.

Our products are designed to cater to both the key stakeholders in the classroom - the teacher and the student. The teacher becomes a facilitator for the student's journey in exploring each new concept. And during the journey, the student is encouraged to collaborate with other students and together build new cognitive models of the concept being taught. Education is our passion and our area of expertise. Through the years our teams have thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of catering to schools across a wide range of socio-cultural spectrum.
