Data Projects

Stop guessing and let your data be the engine that drives your team's success.

The Challenge

A 5+ person Education Abroad Office at a mid-sized, private institution was struggling to grow enrollment and meet institutionally-set goals. Although they were sitting on a pile of data, they had no clear vision of their core student studying abroad, where there were gaps in programming, nor how to best collaborate with academic departments to grow study abroad enrollment.

The Solution

The consulting services team did a deep dive into the current and historical data from this institution. Over the course of several weeks, the consulting team connected with each member of the team to discuss data collection methods and its use in decision making. They analyzed:

Past application conversions
Participant data
Marketing and outreach efforts
Courses completed on study abroad programs
And more!

Results & Outcomes

The consulting services team completed a full data analysis and presented a report showcasing potential areas for growth and marketing efforts with the highest return on investment. The team also delivered tools to continue using the data collected. Our tools included:

Handouts for each academic department, outlining historical data and potential areas of growth in their specific department
Course equivalency database by program, as well as by major
Streamlined process for data collection and usage moving forward
