Student support staff are mission-critical. Are they deployed where it matters?

Many institutions are facing similar pressures: declining enrollment, state and federal funding support remains flat, and every dollar needs to work harder. But even the smallest cuts require down stream knowledge about potential impacts to student success. 

 

HelioCampus Student Support Insights offers an activity-based view of how your labor spend maps to student services, combined with satisfaction surveys so you can gauge over time the impact of changes. Compare staffing in advising, health & wellness, facilities, and other student-facing functions against consortium members to more confidently direct resources toward the highest-impact investments.

How Temple University moved from gut-feel resource allocation to data-backed student investment.

Facing flat state funding and enrollment pressure, Temple University used HelioCampus Labor Cost Analytics to target $33m in reductions. They were able to effectively evaluate positions to identify exactly where to reinvest, including a data-driven expansion of mental health services on campus.

 

This precision also enabled a $35.6m increase in financial aid and the expansion of online learning programs—proof-positive that efficiency and mission don't have to be in conflict.
