SIS SOS: Finding Our Way Out of the Tangle

Few topics have generated as much discussion and frustration among schools as the current state of Student Information Systems (SIS). Across the country institutions are voicing concerns about reliability, functionality and the growing uncertainty caused by recent announcements of acquisitions and financial instability within the SIS industry.

This workshop will bring together experts from multiple SIS platforms along with representatives from the legal community to address the most pressing questions and challenges schools are facing. Participants can expect a lively, candid and solution-focused discussion aimed at helping school leaders navigate the complexities of SIS management, compliance and data integrity.

Join CSPEN for what promises to be an engaging and insightful workshop designed to help you find clarity and a path forward out of the SIS tangle.

The Higher Education Policy Meeting begins at 2 pm on Tuesday, February 10th and ends at noon on Thursday, February 12th
