What are automated notifications?
Automated notifications are messages sent by the system when a particular event occurs or at a scheduled time. For example, they can remind a student about a payment or inform a parent about an important matter related to lessons.
In DL PRO, the school decides whether a particular notification should be sent by email, SMS or both. The recipient may be a student, parent or guardian, teacher or a representative of a corporate client. This makes it possible to match the communication to the relationship with the recipient and the type of information being shared.
For instance, a school can set up a reminder about an upcoming or overdue payment. The system then sends the message automatically, so an administrator does not need to monitor every individual case or prepare large numbers of similar messages manually. DL PRO supports payment management and SMS reminders, making the school’s day-to-day administration easier to manage.
Send messages at the right time
Effective automation is not only about sending a message. Timing matters too. A reminder about a payment or a lesson should arrive when the recipient is likely to notice it and act on it.
In DL PRO, schools can set the time ranges during which the system sends emails and SMS messages. If a message is ready before the selected sending hours, the system keeps it in the queue and sends it at the next permitted time. This helps prevent messages from being sent late in the evening or at another unsuitable time.
It is also worth noting that automated notifications may not leave the system at the exact minute an event occurs. A brief delay of a few minutes results from the system’s scheduled processing and is a normal part of the automation process.
Email, SMS and the mobile app
Email is useful for more detailed information, such as confirmations, organisational messages or communication that requires a reply. A school can use its own email address, which helps strengthen brand recognition, or choose the solution available within DL PRO.
SMS is a good channel for short, important messages, such as payment reminders. It can be sent through an SMS gateway or a phone running the DL PRO PHONE app. In-app notifications provide a discreet prompt that lets users know they have received a new message from the school.
Summary
Automated notifications in DL PRO help language schools improve customer service, reduce repetitive tasks and maintain clear communication. They provide practical support for schools running language courses, regardless of the number of students, groups, employees or branches.
