Higher Ed Administrators Trade Know How and Ideas at GlyphEd's GlyphWORLD™ 201


Alexandria, Va, Jan. 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GlyphEd™, the leading provider of interactive data visualization and discovery technology for college and university management teams, hosted administrators from Boston College, Gannon University, John Carroll University, and the University of Notre Dame at the first annual GlyphWorld™ user conference, January 11th and 12th. Users of GlyphEd’s data visualization software for Enrollment Management gathered to discuss how they are driving efficiencies and effectiveness with data and data visualization.

GlyphWorld™ kicked off with a brief year in review from GlyphEd™ founder and CEO, Mark Sloan. GlyphEd™ has shown rapid growth over the year thanks to its unique user focused products and the  GlyphEd™ Early Adopter Program. Member schools quickly dove into working sessions that focused on marketing and recruiting, admissions, student success and retention, and financial aid. Participants shared data and program best practices, how each use GlyphEd™ in admissions, retention and financial aid, and provided working suggestions for the next year of GlyphEd™ software development.

"It was an incredibly insightful, productive, and user focused series of conversations," said Mark Sloan, Founder and CEO of GlyphEd™. "We love working with schools and we're excited that these schools could make it to GlyphWorld™. Their ideas and working knowledge will go directly into enhancements to GlyphEd™’s software.”

GlyphEd™ presents student data related to recruiting, admisions, financial aid, student success and retention within a single graphical/visual representation on the user's computer screen. Users can view all of their student related data holistically and in context, to enhance analysis and find answers that inform student success programs more quickly and easily.



Member schools at GlyphWorld™ provided anecdotes and measures of success as they discussed their use of GlyphEd™ within their job functions. Admissions teams shared experiences of finding quality candidates in previously underrepresented cohorts.  Finance teams shared their needs and how data visualization expedites their analysis. Retention teams discussed how data visualization helped them to identify at risk students more quickly, enabling their schools to create meaningful programs for those students – and ensure achievement of university financial goals.


"GlyphWorld™ was designed so that early adopters could have the floor, share their ideas, tell us what works and what doesn't in our products, and have a lot of fun throughout that process," added Sloan. "We want to help schools provide the best education possible for their students, so we are designing and building with and for them. We're very fortunate to have such a great group of customers and users.  We look forward to our next GlyphWorld™ event."


GlyphEd™ integrates with existing CRM and enrollment management data systems allowing schools to benefit from data they already capture. Schools such as the University of Notre Dame, Gannon University, John Carroll University, Kent State, as well as higher education consulting firms, use GlyphEd™ to maximize insight from their data.


GlyphEd™ Early Adopters get all of the benefits of mastering their Big Data with GlyphEd™ as well as the opportunity to provide feedback and design ideas regarding the functionality, design, and usability of GlyphEd’s software.
