Although the education a student receives in a classroom is important, InvolvEdu was created as an extracurricular activity planner to reinforce that there's just as much merit in learning outside of school.
InvolvEdu is free to students in the form of a web and mobile app, serving as a place where students can get involved with various study or student groups. As an activity organizer, this tool streamlines the process of getting emails, notifications and calendar updates about an upcoming event.
The chance to connect with other high school or university students may be one of the most rewarding features of the app, but another huge bonus of using the app is that students can get credits for taking part in extracurricular activities.
