Kuali Day delegate survey

» Either there is the need for one University to take a lead or a central organisation, like JISC, to coordinate going forward.

» Set up a collaborative group to share the effort and risk of assessing, "localising" (to UK needs) and implementing Kuali systems.

» Set up UK project group with dedicated staff who work in Universities to being in expertise needed.

» Through open dialogue and discussion of the relevant and important priorities facing organizations in the UK and identifying how they may be satisfied with Kuali community developed and supported solutions that best serve higher education.

» Track Kuali work, establish UK interest group(s per product?), discuss with Kuali Foundation a UK sub-group/ licence arrangement.

Kuali Day delegate survey

» How the UK specific elements of statutory reporting, UCAS, tier 4, etc. can be added and maintained?

» Readiness year-on-year to do UK statutory returns, e.g. HESA, TRAC

» Online, largely product/system-specific communities; possibly with nominated champions to review what other countries are doing (USA?).

» On-demand analytics - enrollment ; learning analytics

» Showcase against some of the other products available. How does Kuali Student stack up against Banner and SITS for example? MIS managers and teams need to be able to see it as a viable alternative. Compliance and reporting are key considerations that make it difficult for others to compete.

» "Cloud-hosted SaaS platform?Multi-tenancy?

Outcomes and beneficiaries

From Prospect to Alumnus

Systems & info not joined-up enough to enable effective student lifecycle relationship management. Need to manifest value for money in the student experience.

Institutional and national viability of provision due to poor and piecemeal student experience.

Better institutional articulation of offer/competitive advantage. Better informed student decisions; better informed stakeholders and national agencies. Institutional, regional and national efficiencies.

1. Build new shared services and enterprise system enhancements through institutional pilots?

2. Improve interaction between constituents of SLRM ecosystem to increase the sum of the parts?

3. Empower the SLRM (e.g. through service design & mgt) to deliver better student experience?

Which Approach?

Issue

Risk of not doing

The way forward?

» Immediate actions versus medium to long term:› Formal relationship between UK and Kuali Foundation, e.g.

UCISA-CISG, Jisc?› Potential Co-Design challenge project activities?

» Support for UK Kuali pilot institutions?› UK/EU requirements, e.g. HESA, KIS, UKBA, HEAR› Internationalization, e.g. currencies in Kuali Finance› “Show and tell”: Sharing experiences and best practices› Potential SaaS hosted platform

» Leverage aspects?› e.g. building on Rice as a vendor neutral ESB
