BLink’s NEW Functions



Last year we told you all about the launch of BLink – our new interactive student/agent portal.  We have since promised a range of exciting new systems and developments that will help improve our ongoing communication. We can now tell you that by September the following features will be available to our clients:

1. Online payment system and Finance page

Access to financial statements and invoices via BLink and the ability to pay invoices by credit card quickly and easily.

2. Flight pages

A designated Flight Page where flight details and instructions on BLink and in doing so will submit these straight to us at Head Office.

3. Holiday arrangements

View travel and accommodation arrangements and download host family profiles and see pick up arrangements.

How to Log in ??

For those of you who have not yet logged in to BLink, you can do so by visiting portal.brightworld.co.uk
To sign in please use the login information that was given to you by your head office guardianship care manager shortly after you made your application.
Once logged in you will be able to view all Bright World’s activity and all information relating to the student. Helpful icons help show all communication made between Bright World and child; detailed reports can also be viewed so that parents can keep track on their child’s progression here in the UK. A photo album will also be created and added to throughout the year.

In 2015 we will enter a new phase of development where we will allow trusted Partners access to our Partner School information. This will improve our communication with those of who work with us on School and University Placements.
