Measure, monitor, model, maneuver
Your institution needs data to inform key decisions at all levels. Do you have the technical bandwidth and expertise - as well as the necessary infrastructure - to pull that off? With the use of a proper technology platform, built for flexibility and scalable cloud infrastructure, your institution can centralize your data securely and transform it into data visualizations for trackable insights.
Purposefully designed, robustly built
Up-to-the-minute informed decisions
Knowledge is at the core of the higher education experience. Not only is information important, knowing the right information - at the right time - is crucial in effective decision-making. Your institution's leadership is faced with critical choices continuously. With a proper technology platform, your team can leverage accurate, relevant data to aid in the decision-making process.
Everything in one place
When your institution lacks a centralized data source, consistency and accuracy suffer. By utilizing an institutional data analytics platform, your data exists as one singular source of truth, replicating data from all sources into a data lake. By organizing your data into a data warehouse, your team not only leverages the power of dimensional modeling but also increases efficiency, making it easy to integrate into pre-built dashboards.
Securely built
In order to properly utilize the vast number of data points your institution holds - from financial aid awards to course scheduling to LMS activity - your team needs an infrastructure which can support securely holding, retrieving, and cataloguing all of this information. Most institutions lack in-house expertise and resources to do so on their own, and those who do often struggle to meet the necessary security requirement standards to guard the infrastructure. With a proper technology platform, all of these issues are eliminated.
Fewer overburdened resources
Implementing a robust technology platform in-house requires staffing, budget, time, training and adoption, and other resources that most institutions don't have the bandwidth for. By adopting a trusted industry expert's technology platform, you forgo your institution's internal resource shortages while still obtaining best-in-class-tools and support.
Powered by AI/machine learning models
Rest assured your institution is at the forefront of the latest technologies with access to AI/machine learning models around retention, yield, enrollment forecasting, and more. Your institution benefits from the hundreds of production-ready machine learning modeling we have implemented with our clients for many years now.
