Solution Description
Creative Computing Inc.’s Higher Education Advanced Dashboard (“HEADs Up”) solution is designed to allow higher education institutions to easily and seamlessly integrate existing data sets into highly intuitive and visually compelling actionable insight. Through the use of recognized academic KPI metrics, consumers will be able to view a quick pulse check on multiple collegiate dimensions. Indicators within Admissions, Enrollments, Retention, Graduation Rates, Financial Aid, Finance, and Student Outcomes can provide a visual “story board” and evoke the most appropriate response to data trends.
These performance metrics can be customized based on the academia’s needs and acquired data sets whether they reside in a data warehouse or extractable flat files. Leveraging Cognos technology “HEADs Up” allows collegiate institution`s to quickly integrate their data in a compelling format readable across the enterprise. This enforces standards across departments to ensure data readiness and definitions are aligned. From one simplified view of the data, a consumer is able to navigate to additional insight to understand why trends occur and react accordingly.
Analysts can continue to work with the data to alter departmental metrics and uncover additional correlations in the data to continue to strengthen the case for action. With “HEADs Up”, executives and consumers alike can make better informed business decisions regarding their institution quicker and easier than ever before.
