Even as schools grapple with the dilemma of opening, they have realised the importance of embarking upon the process of digital transformation for holistic learning through digital classroom teaching! Motif India (a leading integrated communications agency headquartered in Mumbai and with offices in Israel and UAE) is helping Ed-Tech Company Tech Avant-Garde (Microsoft’s ISV and Global Partner in Education) with an outreach programme for schools in India. As sole marketing agent of Tech Avant-Garde (TAG), Motif India team will reach out to and connect with Trustees, Principals and Management of schools across India to empower them to transform and become a CARTE BLANCHE graduate school in a Connected Learning Community (CLC).
TAG became the first company in Indian education sector to partner with the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) for the Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS), a Reserve Bank of India (RBI) conceptualized system, for online payment of fees in schools and other educational institutions. Due to the pandemic educational institutions are experiencing two issues – one is to transform their teaching learning process the other is the fee collection process. TAG fostered Efeeonline is collaborating with Bharat Bill Pay System (BBPS) to enable digital fee payments.

The fees can now be paid from anywhere, any place or on any device. Motif India’s telecallers will connect to the management of all schools with offline and digital marketing initiatives.
