With student and public doubts about the value of a degree rising, disconnected systems and fragmented student support have become more than operational challenges; they're barriers to student success. 

Join us for a timely discussion based on our newly-released compilation, “Designing a Connected Campus: From Enrollment to Graduation.” Inside Higher Ed’s Senior Editor of Special Content Colleen Flaherty and an expert panel will examine how institutions are reducing friction across the student journey by improving collaboration, sharing data more effectively and building cultures where student success is everyone's responsibility.

You'll learn:

  • Why breaking down institutional silos has become a strategic priority
  • How campuses are creating cross-functional teams that improve student outcomes
  • Ways to use shared data to identify opportunities for earlier intervention
  • Practical approaches for creating more seamless experiences for today's increasingly diverse learners

If your institution is working to improve persistence, strengthen belonging or better coordinate student support, this webcast will provide proven ideas and practical strategies you can begin applying on campus.
