Countless institutions waste valuable time and resources on strategic initiatives that don't live up to expectations, like boosting enrollment or improving operations. Fortunately, there's a way to steer clear of these costly mistakes.

Join us for a panel discussion led by higher education strategist Paul Friga of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. They dive into fresh research and discuss recent case studies that will equip you with new institutional intelligence. You’ll also hear from Erin Shy, CEO of Watermark, on how to ensure you’re getting the right data to inform these important decisions.

Why you should attend:
– You’ll discover the latest insights that will help you plan more effectively and achieve success.
– You’ll learn about the common reasons why strategic planning in higher education falls short.
– You’ll hear practical tips on how to avoid these mistakes and gain ideas on what you can do instead.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to enhance your planning skills and drive positive change in your institution.

"Watermark helps us keep the students we've worked so hard to recruit and see them across the finish line, which in turn improves the bottom line of the college."

"Everything was siloed in our college... no one really had access to everything. With Watermark, we were able to pull everything into one location, which gives faculty, staff, advisors, and leadership the same tool. They can see everything holistically."
