International Student Services

International Student Services (ISS) is an online platform where international students can arrange all their basic needs before they come to the Netherlands. They can purchase various services via this platform, such as an OV chip card, telephone subscription or a bank account. In this way they start well prepared for their study time in the Netherlands.

Developing an online platform


Dolphiq has developed an online platform for international students in collaboration with International Student Services (ISS). The platform was developed together with the Business Owner of ISS according to the scrum methodology. Together we realized the website and back office (set up in Laravel) in a short time. Students can now take out the desired services via the website within a few clicks. These are available to ISS in the back office, which is used to manage the application.

Services

ISS ensures that foreign students can start their study time in the Netherlands well prepared. From their home country they can easily arrange all kinds of things online so that they are not faced with surprises once they have arrived in the Netherlands.

Website

On the website, students can find information about what to expect in the Netherlands. They will also find an overview of the services and you can create an account. Students are guided through the ordering process as quickly as possible to place an order.

Back office

The application can be managed in the back office, intended for employees of ISS. Here they will find an overview of the students with an account and the orders they have placed. In addition, you can add service providers, create new partners, etc.
