INTEGRATE ONLINE COMMUNICATIONS ACROSS YOUR CAMPUS
WITH AN ON-DEMAND COLLEGE PORTAL
More Than a Fancy Front End
A college portal is more than a fancy front-end to your administrative system. It must solve an abundance of challenges institutions face. As the institution administrator responsible for ensuring reliable, timely, and appropriate communications for all your constituents, your challenge isn't about finding an online solution, but deciding which best fits your needs. With CampusCruiser college portal and it's modules you get an integrated suite of communication modules that are hosted on our servers. This means you can:
Send Security Alerts/Campus Notices: When you have important 'flash' information that you want to get to students, staff, and faculty, quickly, using a mass notification system like CruiserAlert is ensures that the messages are delivered as planned. Constituents can sign-up, opt-out, and update their contact information at any time so they can keep track of what's important to them.
Track your Communications Effectiveness: Because onilne communication passes through your campus portal, it is much easier to keep track of campus-wide communication and track student activity in online courses hosted through CourseCruiser ,the Learning Management System. Questions such as 'Who posted questions and when' 'Who viewed certain pages, and when?' 'Who responded to surveys?' and more. Armed with this information faculty can adjust teaching plans, administrators can modify schedules , and more based on 'hard' data, rather than hunches.
Stay Ahead of the Curve: With a CampusCruiser network on your campus, you can communicate with your students using the online communication tools they are already familiar with -- and expect to be able to use--email, blog, wiki, chat, text messages, and more.
Notify Staff of Programs/Policies: Keeping staff motivated starts with keeping them informed. Building communities exclusively for staff groups, departments, teams, and others can help you keep your staff on top of policy changes and program successes.
Answer Questions: Community leaders have an opportunity to engage with community members by answering their questions in the community message boards for others to view.
Seek the Opinions of Others: The college administration needs to know what students, staff, and faculty are thinking. With our Survey Tool you can target specific groups for feedback about institution changes, policies, events, and academics.
CampusCruiser is an essential tool for performing academic, administrative, and transactional activities at colleges.
