American University of Antigua Selects TopSchool to Help Drive Significant Improvements in Academic and Administrative Outcomes
TopSchool Provides Simple, Flexible, Cost Effective Way to Deliver Outstanding Student Service
American University of Antigua (AUA) has selected TopSchool's
Student Lifecycle Management (SLM) system to manage student
information from initial contact with a prospect through
graduation. TopSchool's SLM will help AUA drive future growth
by improving communication with prospective students, as well as
drive operational efficiencies by automating processes and enabling
easier data access. TopSchool will help AUA enhance service
quality to students by providing access to key performance data in
order to make significant administrative and academic
improvements.
"With our consistent growth in enrollment, we found we had
simply outgrown our existing system. The reality of the time and
expense it took to maintain our current system made it clear to us
that we were ready to move up to a more powerful system and service
delivery model," said Tom Gardner, vice president and CTO of
AUA.
"After an exhaustive vendor search, we selected TopSchool - its
leading edge technology has the robust, yet flexible functionality
we need to attract, support and retain excellent students.
Additionally, the system will easily adapt to our plan for
continuous improvement as student needs evolve," commented
Gardner.
Gardner continued, "TopSchool's SaaS model also provides
financial benefits others just couldn't match, with a much lower
initial investment, faster implementation and predictable
costs. Plus, our investments in technical staff will be value
added resources that will be hired to make a direct contribution to
improving service delivery. TopSchool's system architecture
and infrastructure are outstanding. It's great to be
able to have our team focus on service delivery excellence while
TopSchool's team concentrates on system management."
TopSchool's next generation technology goes beyond a traditional
student information system. It provides the portal for
prospective students to learn about AUA, a CRM module to
communicate with prospects and students, an SIS to track and manage
students from enrollment through program completion, and an
intelligent reporting suite to measure outcomes and improve
offerings. Additionally, the system easily integrates with
other third party applications.
"We are pleased to partner with AUA as it looks to more
efficiently and effectively manage its growing student population
of in-demand doctors and nurses," said Matthew Schnittman.
"The University offers an innovative and unique program, and our
next-generation management, communication and reporting tools
provide administrative flexibility and simplicity so AUA can focus
its efforts on delivering a top quality program and supporting
student success."
AUA is the only hospital-integrated medical school in the
Caribbean. The University's medical education program is
based on U.S. school curriculum and incorporates hospital
experience beginning in the first semester. AUA prepares its
students for the U.S. Medical Licensing Examinations and NCLEX, and
also provides clinical clerkship opportunities in some of the best
teaching hospitals in the U.S.
