Educational Institutes are a type of information provider. Their role is to provide information regarding a person or prospect in relation to education services they are receiving. This information may be used as evidence during case processing or in the selection of appropriate services related to a product delivery case. Examples of educational institutes include elementary schools, junior schools, open universities, and vocational training institutes.
While an Educational Institute is by design a type of Information Provider, it shares many of the functions that are provided for the other participant types. The role is therefore represented in the application as a participant type in its own right. For example, A specific Educational Institute registration and search is provided.
