CACRAO/StriveScan Partnership
CACRAO is pleased to announce we are continuing our partnership with StriveScan to bring their student barcode scanning technology to all of our college fairs in North and South Carolina. StriveScan will make the experience more efficient and productive for students and colleges, plus provide CACRAO and the Ed-Op organizers with valuable data about the events.
We know that some institutions may have their own QR code to collect student data. In an effort to create the most positive and seamless student experience, and to provide CACRAO with accurate data on our Ed-Op events, we encourage your institution to utilize StriveScan rather than your own QR code.
You can find StriveScan training videos at strivescan.com/training and their team can be reached directly at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
New for 2025: Through CACRAO’s partnership with StriveScan, we are excited to introduce a new feature this Ed-Op season called, Event Guide. This new platform enhances the StriveScan experience from scanning at the fair to helping students prepare in advance and make the most of their visit. CACRAO is piloting this platform specifically for the larger consolidated fairs across NC and SC (total of 20 fairs/events). The additional cost per event is $9 to utilize this feature.
