INTUITION now Safeguarding Over 250,000 Students

BASINGSTOKE, England, November 9, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    INTUITION has become the must-have student services management tool with
six colleges implementing the web-based solution over the past few months.

    INTUITION enables student services teams to collect robust intelligence
about the learners they engage with, to efficiently track and manage
interventions and actions, and to respond effectively to student
requirements. "We recognise the need to continue to improve the
effectiveness of our services to support all of our students. Although we
have worked hard in building an evidence base over the years, INTUITION
provides us with a centralised source of information to truly join up our
activities with students right across the college." Lesley Ferguson,
Director of Student Services, Bedford College.

    As colleges face yet another challenge with the end of the Education
Maintenance Allowance and the introduction of the 16 -18 Bursary, INTUITION
is also being used to manage the distribution of this fund, helping to
ensure that support reaches the most vulnerable students. INTUITION manages
bursary fund distribution by:

   
    - Tracking and assessing student applications
    - Controlling budget expenditure
    - Evaluating the impact of funding on individuals
    - Collecting the information which may be needed by the YPLA
    - Highlighting the most vulnerable students

    Student outcomes have become the focus of all colleges as the Government
moves toward funding which is dependent on the number of students entering
into employment after leaving further education. Ensuring that students have
been fully supported throughout their further education experience means
that an improvement in the way that information is collected, reported and
shared has become business critical for most colleges.

    Developed in partnership with the National Association for Managers of
Student Services (NAMSS), INTUITION is a single solution for the management
of Student Services. "NAMSS is proud to work in partnership with ACTIVE to
produce INTUITION which has the potential to revolutionise impact assessment
across the sector." Jim Busher, NAMSS Vice-Chair.
