Reacting to the latest news breaking in your industry

Scope and coverage

Case study analysis of two higher education institutions

Interviews with key ERP and SIS vendors

Focus on higher education in the US

Key findings and highlights

The number of non-traditional students is growing due to the aging of the US workforce and the dramatic shifts in the skills and education needed to compete successfully in the global economy.

These growing enrolments are putting pressure on existing ERP and SIS systems, as non-traditional students have different needs, goals, and expectations for their institutions.

ERP and SIS vendors will need to offer increased scalability, flexibility, and analytics in order for institutions to more efficiently and effectively meet the needs of non-traditional students.
