What the Expert Panel Will Discuss

The one-size-fits-all OPM model, where universities outsource enrollment and student success operations, lacks the adaptability to meet unique institutional goals. The panel will discuss the effectiveness of a more strategic blend of in-sourcing, outsourcing and unbundled services to optimize operational effectiveness.
Some of the questions the panel will address include:

blank

Strategic Focus

Given the limitations of the OPM model, how are you developing a strategic mix of in-sourcing core functions, outsourcing specific needs and leveraging unbundled services to achieve your unique enrollment and student success goals?

blank

Data-Driven Decisions

Beyond cost considerations, what data metrics do you use to evaluate the effectiveness of in-sourcing core functions vs. outsourcing specific needs or using unbundled services in marketing, enrollment management, and student success?

blank

Scalability and Sustainability

How does the flexibility of unbundled services compared to the OPM model influence your decisions on in-sourcing or outsourcing critical functions to ensure long-term scalability and sustainability of your enrollment and student success programs?
