The University of Auckland uses analytics to improve its student experience

University of Auckaland uses MicroStrategy to identify students struggling in class, earlier.

Universities face the difficult task of steadily improving student success rates. The University of Auckland turned to MicroStrategy's data analytics capabilities to reuse and visualize student data and see exactly where students are struggling in classes. This enabled staff to reach out to students earlier in their education and extend help before their final exams, significantly increasing their retention and pass rates.

I needed something simple that allowed us to pull the information, put it back into our database and report out, and that's what we got. Pamela Moss, Director of Planning, University of Auckland
