Moving to a Cloud-Based Student Information System: A Readiness Checklist for Higher Education
Moving to a Cloud-Based Student Information System: A Readiness Checklist for Higher Education
Mar-23 DOC # US50432323 Insight
This IDC Perspective discusses how institutions of higher education have developed a greater appetite to move away from their legacy, on-premises student information system (SIS) to a more modern, cloud-based solution. In response to this demand, SIS vendors have made strides to transform their solution offerings. However, there are some notable challenges that are preventing the lion's share of institutions from moving to a cloud-based SIS, and many institutions are taking a risk-averse, wait-and-see approach. To help institutions overcome risk aversion and accelerate their cloud-based SIS transitions, IDC provides a "readiness checklist for higher education." The guide provides advice for education leaders looking to determine whether cloud-based SIS migration is the right approach to achieve their goals, whether the institution has the capacity to manage a cloud-based SIS transition, and how to choose the best-fit vendor to work with.
"Moving from a legacy, on-premises SIS to a modern, cloud-based solution is one of the very, if not the most, challenging IT projects that institutions will ever undertake," said Matthew Leger, research manager for IDC's Worldwide Education Digital Strategies practice. "Before they touch their legacy system, higher education IT leaders must determine three important things: Is this the right strategy for my institution, do we have the capacity to undertake a cloud-based SIS transition, and how do I determine the best-fit vendor to work with?"

IDC PlanScape: Student Engagement Strategies for Higher Education
IDC PlanScape: Student Engagement Strategies for Higher Education
Apr-22 DOC # US48982422 IDC DecisionScape
This IDC PlanScape was drafted to provide a new definition of student engagement and to provide higher education leaders with guidance for how to craft more effective and holistic student engagement strategies.
"In the face of declining enrollments, higher education leaders are seeking enhanced capabilities to more effectively engage their students," said Matthew Leger, research manager for IDC's Worldwide Education Digital Transformation Strategies program. "Unfortunately, there is not one clear, universal definition of what student engagement really is and how to execute a student engagement strategy. This research is an important first step in helping create a clearer definition of student engagement and provide institutions with critical guidance to improve student experiences at their institutions."

May-22 DOC # US49032122 IDC DecisionScape
This IDC PeerScape discusses best practices for student engagement in higher education.
"In response to rising demand for tools to enhance student engagement, vendors have emerged across a range of technology categories with new tools and capabilities. As a result, there is not one clear or widely agreed upon definition of what 'student engagement' is," said Matthew Leger, research manager, IDC's Worldwide Education Digital Transformation Strategies practice. "This research is an important first step in helping create a clearer definition of student engagement and provide institutions with critical guidance to improve student experiences at their institutions."
