Colleges are collecting more data about their students than ever, but making sense of that data and putting it to effective use still presents a challenge. How can colleges translate data into effective one-to-one interventions that ultimately help them increase overall student retention and graduation rates?

In session one of our Smart Interventions series, The Chronicle and a panel of experts will convene virtually to discuss how student data fits into the broader student-success landscape and how colleges can effectively use predictive analytics and data-driven strategies to proactively support students.
  • How can colleges work to intervene when it’s most effective?
  • What metrics should colleges be watching for and why?
  • How can colleges craft interventions in a way that truly supports students at risk for stopping out?
