Graduating in 4 Years
Tuesday, June 11, at 11:00 am (CDT)
Do your course offerings accurately reflect your students’ needs?  Will they graduate on-time? Students surveyed say they want – and need – access to a “full” schedule from their schools. Most institutions are not aware of the severity and importance of this need. This “awareness gap” significantly impacts graduation rates and student satisfaction. Helping students make maximum progress to degree includes offering a student friendly schedule.  Join this webinar to learn more about how institutions are mobilizing Platinum Analytics results with the help of our consultants to make high-impact changes to academic schedules.   Suggested Audience:  Academic Schedulers, Enrollment Managers, Provosts, Associate Provosts, Registrars.

Aligning Course Offerings to Meet Student Demand & Maximize Academic Resources
Thursday, June 20, at 11:00 am (CDT)
The management of academic resources and the need to balance students’ are critical success factors in Higher Education.  During this webinar you will learn how Ad Astra’s consulting services and solutions are providing data and metrics that address capacity, efficiency, and student success.    Every campus has some level of inefficiency caused by a discrepancy between student need and seats offered in the various courses in the schedule. Unneeded offerings amount to wasted faculty capacity and productivity while unmet student needs in other offerings create roadblocks to graduation and retention. The identification of oversupply and undersupply assists institutions in making change to   reduce waste and increase satisfaction of student demand.
Suggested Audience:  Provost, Registrars, Enrollment Managers, Academic Schedulers.
