Those we have seen succeed come with backgrounds in institutional research, institutional effectiveness, budget and planning, or enrollment analytics; implementation or delivery roles at companies serving higher education; and functional offices such as the registrar, admissions, financial aid, or student accounts. This role works across the full range of institutional analytics we implement - from the student lifecycle, including admissions, enrollment, retention, completions, and student financials, to academic cost analytics, where the questions turn to what a program costs to deliver and what it earns.
