The French-Speaking Association of the North Shore (FANS)

The French-speaking Association of the North Shore, (F.A.N.S.), is a non for profit association created in 1998 by a group of families from a French-speaking background (French, Belgian, Swiss, etc.) residing on the North Shore of Sydney. Its mission is the promotion of the French language and culture amongst the French-speaking families located in the area, with special activities for children and adults. These activities include a bilingual program in a primary school, outside school hours classes and social activities for its members.

Port Cities started collaborating with FANS in December 2020, implementing Odoo to streamline its operations. They were looking to simplify data management and enrolments, improve their communication among their members, easily manage their events, open a personalized customer portal to allow online student registration for parents, and overall help the administration team to be more efficient. This has been possible with the OpenEducat, Invoicing, Subscriptions, Surveys, Email Marketing, Event, Website, Dashboard and Calendar modules.
