This will be a conversation—not a presentation—with institutions at different points in their modernization journey. Together, we’ll unpack how to assess your institution’s SaaS readiness, how to communicate the vision and value to your teams, cabinet, and board, and what foundational steps are needed to move forward with confidence.
Most importantly, we’ll show how Ellucian serves not just as a vendor, but as a strategic partner—equipped to guide, support, and accelerate your path to a more agile, secure, and future-ready campus.
Join us to gain insights, share your perspective, and leave with a clearer roadmap for your institution’s SaaS future.
