From Months to Minutes - Innovative Ways to Strategic Academic Program Planning
The Problem
The future of your institution depends on a healthy mix of academic programs for students, yet half of the academic programs launched since 2013 have failed costing institutions an average of $2 million per program. Not to mention that the process takes too long which leads to frustrated boards and missed opportunities.
Our Take
We believe that there are new approaches to program planning in higher education that go beyond the traditional red ocean and tap into blue ocean opportunities for growth. We also know that data-driven decision-making and innovative technologies can help your institution stand out, attract more students, and increase revenue.
During this webinar our expert speakers will share best practices and show you how to chart a course towards academic program success, including how to:
- Assess Program Viability utilizing data-driven insights
- Evaluate market potential, competition, and student preferences.
- Build Optimal Academic Program Mix
- Implement best practices for Academic Program Success
Presented by Matt Krov and Mary Grondahl

Webinar: Understanding Market Data Dynamics
In a rapidly changing higher education landscape, traditional strategic enrollment planning (SEP) methods may NO longer be effective. This webinar series challenges Enrollment professionals to take a fresh approach to SEP by using data driven decision making.
There’s been a lot of noise about the enrollment cliff. But we challenge that notion and in fact flat out dismiss it.
In this first webinar, our expert panel will focus on how institutions can analyze, identify and enter new markets to expand their enrollment base. We'll discuss how to:
- Identify untapped geographies, market and student segments that may be a good fit for your institution.
- Evaluate the potential demand for your institution in these new markets and estimate the associated return.
- What data and data visualizations you need to empower you with you peer groups
- Model different enrollment scenarios and make data-driven decisions about your expansion plans.
