How do you extend your reach, both locally and globally, while tightening 
your budget? For Edinburgh Napier University the answer is in bridging the 
gap between campuses, each approximately 3 miles apart. Without online 
collaboration tools, a weekly in-person meeting often required attendees to 
drive a car or take a cab, and those expenses add up fast.
Edinburgh Napier University streamlines  
long-distance learning with joint collaboration 
solution from Cisco and CirQlive.
 
Now users can schedule a whole semester’s worth of classes 
in just a few clicks.
