Using ID Badges for More Than Just Visual Identification
With the advancements in today's technology, photo ID cards can multi-task more now than ever before. Definitely more than just visual identification!
Here are 10 time-saving and resource-conscious ways that school photo ID cards can be used in a K-12 school or on a college/university campus when it's time to issue students, staff, and faculty ID badges:
Improving Your Card's Security
There are a number of features you can add to your school ID badges to improve safety and security. A basic level of security can be incorporated into your cards within its design. Rather than a photo on a plain white background, consider using custom imagery like school colors, font face, or even the school's mascot.
To easily distinguish between students, faculty, and staff, incorporate a color-coding system into your cards. For example, add a blue bar to indicate faculty, a green bar to indicate students, and a black bar to indicate administration. You can also design your visitor badges with an entirely different look so that visitor status is clearly evident from a distance.
More advanced visual verification applications include holographic foils and overlaminates which can be either embedded in your cards or applied onto the card's surface.
