Modernizing ERP Systems for Higher Education
Higher education institutions face the challenge of keeping up with evolving technology while ensuring operational efficiency and student success. Ellucian Banner offers a comprehensive solution to modernize ERP systems in universities and colleges. One success story involves Metropolitan Community College's transition from an antiquated ERP to Ellucian Banner SaaS. Migrating to Software as a Service (SaaS) is a significant task, but Ellucian provides ample support and assistance throughout the process. This demonstrates how institutions can benefit from a streamlined, cloud-based ERP system that enhances productivity and data security.
Enhancing Student Engagement and Accessibility
In an increasingly competitive landscape, universities are focusing on enhancing student engagement and accessibility. Ellucian Banner solutions enable institutions to engage with students early on and empower recruitment counselors with informed insights. For instance, a private university increased college accessibility by leveraging Ellucian's Raise Me platform. By engaging with prospects early and providing counselors with the necessary tools, universities can streamline their recruitment processes and attract a diverse student population.
Automating Processes and Improving Efficiency
National Louis University, an Impact Award winner, automated its course copy selection process with Ellucian Banner. This automation not only saves time but also ensures accuracy and consistency in administrative tasks. Additionally, the University of Idaho modernized its student dashboard and unified disparate software programs using Ellucian Experience. This resulted in improved efficiency, simplified processes, and enhanced user experiences for students and staff. By leveraging Ellucian's solutions, institutions can automate processes, reduce manual work, and enhance overall operational efficiency.
Empowering Collaboration and Success
Collaboration and innovation are key drivers of success in higher education. Ellucian's solutions, such as Experience and Banner, have enabled institutions like PennWest University and Commonwealth University to collaborate and power student success. By unifying systems and processes, institutions can create a seamless experience for students and staff, leading to improved outcomes and achievements. Moreover, platforms like Ellucian CRM Recruit, Degree Works, and Virtual Advisor have empowered colleges like Gwinnett Technical College to enhance staff training, data access, and student enrollment processes. These tools facilitate improved student satisfaction and success rates.
Transforming Budgeting and Forecasting Processes
Budgeting and forecasting are critical components of financial management in higher education. Manhattanville College transformed its budgeting and forecasting software with Ellucian Colleague ERP system. By leveraging advanced tools and processes, institutions can make informed financial decisions, allocate resources efficiently, and optimize budgeting strategies. Ellucian's solutions empower colleges and universities to enhance financial management, streamline operations, and drive institutional growth.
