But Really, What Do We Do?
Complementing the skills you currently have with your IT support, Alcove Insights knows the common hurdles of higher education because we’ve seen them. You’re in the right place to make complex data more useful. Typically, the services we provide involve integrating tools and systems to best report and visualize informative data.
The “Whats” include …
Operational Reports:
Operational Reports support and automate the day-to-day operations of your institution and provide data to drive results for class schedules, student enrollment, and financial aid, just to name a few.
Analytical Reports:
Analytical Reports are intended to aid in decision-making among the realm of, for example, student retention, graduation rates, cohort tracking, institution demographics, and much more.
Dashboards:
And now to put it all together. Dashboards allow for us to take those insights and form an interactive, visual presentation for your team to use and share..
