Bring Your Own Device(BYOD)?
Bring your own device (or BYOD) means that instead of using one of our laptops, desktop computers, or Macs, you bring in your own laptop or tablet. You’ll then be able to use your Franklin log-in details to access our network and use Google Workspace, Office 365, and Adobe Full Created Cloud Enterprise Suite.
Once connected, you’re free to utilise our digital learning environments including The Bridge where there’s plenty of charging facilities and workspaces to ensure you can focus on your learning.
If you want to bring in your own digital device, please make sure it’s a laptop or tablet and not a mobile phone.
