Challenges
Keeping students and staff up to date on everything happening in policy, curriculum, assignments, job fairs, seminars, community events, breaking news and all things relevant to campus solidarity, is essential to institutional success. In today's educational arena a fragmented technology solution may lead to compromised information distribution. Also, as many students and instructors operate autonomously off-site, they rely on the accuracy and accessibility of their campus offerings. While institutions strive to unify services they are faced with many options for choosing the right solution for their populations.
Issues
The following are the key issues faced by institutions in keeping the campus informed with unified information:
- If students, staff, and administration all have different tools for intra/intercampus communication, the campus will struggle to stay informed. The pressure to keep the campus informed and connected can create more pressure in providing a sensible and effective enterprise solution for a wide range of needs.
- Lost, undelivered, and misappropriated information is a cost liability that affects institutional operational efficiency and occurs often in the instance that there is either no enterprise portal solution or a series of solutions that don't facilitate campus needs.
- Most enrollment, retention, and policy problems stem from a breakdown in communication that can lead to perceptions that frame an image of the campus inside and out.
- In today's fast-paced campus of hectic schedules and overloaded information, the risk of communication breakdown can be increased if the campus relies on a singular communication strategy such as email.
