Datatel Prepares for Major Presence at EDUCAUSE 2008FAIRFAX, Va. --(Business Wire)-- Datatel, Inc. today announced that it will host a corporate presentation, four hands-on workshops, and a press/analyst briefing to introduce the Strategic Academic Enterprise(TM) - the company's pioneering vision for higher education - at next week's 2008 EDUCAUSE Conference in Orlando, Fla. Datatel(R) will anchor its conference operations at exhibit booth #1001, where executives and subject matter experts will hold product demonstrations, answer questions about the company's solutions, and discuss its strategic plan to help institutions realize their visions for student success. The Strategic Academic Enterprise is a new paradigm that addresses today's realities in higher education. It is a holistic approach that focuses on and supports five cross-functional business processes key to institutional success: Strategic Enrollment Management, Performance and Operational Management, Teaching and Learning, Institutional Advancement and Marketing, and Strategic Planning. This evolution from the enterprise resource planning (ERP) model will drive Datatel's corporate direction as it moves beyond the ERP model to address the needs of today's colleges and universities - as well as future requirements. More information about the Strategic Academic Enterprise, and how it will shape Datatel's current and future offerings for clients, will be disseminated at the following events during EDUCAUSE 2008: Press and Analyst Breakfast Briefing: October 29, 2008 at 7:00 a.m. The Peabody Orlando Hotel Plaza International Ballroom "B" (Convention Level - 1st Floor) By Invitation Only--Please contact Peter Abzug ([email protected]) or 703.259.2831 for more information.
