Implementing effective institutional strategies requires that departments at every level be able to define and monitor quantitative and qualitative goals. Administrators, Institutional Researchers, and Planners must be able to view the status of these goals on a timely basis without repetitive, time-consuming data entry.

With Executive Intelligence, you will be able to:

Use Scorecards to Monitor KPIs

Go beyond dashboards with a balanced scorecard to quantify and monitor your strategic goals

Create measures, weighting factors, and KPIs for each strategic priority.

See progress through easy to understand “red, yellow, green” indicators.

Drill-down to underlying metrics (i.e. “Retain 72% of students in core curriculum.”)

Seamlessly drill-through to the Research Intelligence module for more in-depth analysis.

Sample scorecard

Note: The idea of representing dashboards in a weighted hierarchy as seen above was taken from work done by Baldrige award winning school, Richland College. Many of the indicators themselves have been taken from the American Association of Community College's publication: Core Indicators of Effectiveness for Community Colleges.

Consistently Report & Collaborate

Report and collaborate on institutional progress by enabling people at all levels to define and monitor KPIs for their functional areas.

Allow academic department heads to see detailed performance of their program.

Create subscriptions so users automatically receive reports on a specific schedule (i.e. every week, census day, etc.).

Share reports and selectively control permissions by making reports read-only for some users (or group of users) while allowing others to make modifications.

Track Daily Enrollments

Compare today's enrollment to the same day in a previous term to see whether your institution is ahead or behind its enrollment goals.

View enrollment numbers based on hundreds of variables. For example, while overall enrollments may be on target, this may mask the fact that enrollments are far off-target in particular divisions, departments, courses, or by mode of instruction (online vs. in person), time of day (day vs. evening), demographic variables (gender, ethnicity, etc.).

Allow department chairs, student service groups, and grant programs to see enrollments for their students compared to the same day in previous terms.

Choose offsets from established dates to get more accurate enrollment comparisons. For example, January 1 this year may fall on a different day during registration than in previous terms. Answer questions such as: What was last year's enrollment 30 days before the end of registration?

Maintain Snapshots

While Daily Enrollments allow you to keep track of a single metric (enrollment) across hundreds of days in a year, Snapshots allow you to track of dozens or even hundreds of metrics (GPA, credits, etc.) for each snapshot date you specify.

Recreate a report years later exactly as it appeared when it was first run.
Take automatic snapshots at arbitrary points in time throughout the semester (census day, first and last day).
Run reports that span multiple snapshots.
