The 5 Step Benchmark360 Methodology
Below are just 5 ways that Benchmark360 can help your Education Institution….
With a large and growing set of valuable industry related benchmark datasets, metrics and visualisations, get instant visibility to where your school is currently positioned. Couple this with Education360’s suite of over 1000 ready-made data connectors to automate data collection from across your school, and you will quickly start to see the power of real-time measurement of your school’s operational and academic data against published benchmarks.
With Education360’s powerful data blending and transformation tools, take your schools’ operational and academic data to the next level by merging it with industry benchmark metrics, unlocking insight into performance trends as they happen rather than waiting weeks or months to know how you are tracking.
Comparative analysis is a valuable method for determining whether you are on or off course to enable you to adapt and adjust in real-time. With Education360’s powerful data visualisation, dashboard and alert features, you track your school’s performance with your internal data right alongside industry benchmarks to know how you are pacing so you can plan and adjust. Be alerted when important KPI’s drop below a certain threshold. Drill down into the details of your own data to know what’s driving that change and take action to make change and correct.
Your school’s staff are swimming in data, but the more fragmented this data becomes, the more opportunity grows for gaps and negative trends in performance. Keeping industry benchmarking front-of-mind alongside other valuable sources of your school’s performance data empowers your staff to quickly identify where real-time inputs are trending above or below expected standards and take action to correct this trend. Education360’s set of visualisation, alerting and distribution tools ensures that all of your staff are on the same page.
A school’s academic and business performance against benchmarks, regional, state and national standards plays a significant role in the lifecycle of a school. From enrolments to graduations and all of the operational aspects that facilitate the educational journey, it is crucial to have strong measurement and management practices in place.
