What our members say about HESS…
Our member institutions across the U.S. constantly praise the HESS Consortium for bringing the best strategic minds together to discuss the most concerning issues facing private, non-profit higher education technology operations in best-practices, contracts, management and innovation. Our members are what makes HESS the world-class community of practice it is today.
Wofford College
The HESS Consortium has been beneficial in my role as a higher education administrator. It has created the avenue to build relationships with our colleagues across the country, discovered methods of cost savings for services we all use at our institutions, and personally, it has helped to develop me professionally through the community that surrounds each member of the consortium.
Berry College
HESS has been a valuable resource to me in several aspects including competitive pricing for both hardware and software, SIS/ERP comparisons which has provided a good understanding of the marketplace, most importantly, relationships with private college colleagues around the nation. I know I can contact them anytime for assistance and insights!
