Transform student success.
Whether you realize it or not, you're in the student success business. Career outcomes are your differentiator.
Your students are graduating into a job market where career advice becomes obsolete in real-time. The consulting track, the academic pipeline, even "safe" professional programs, none look the same as they did five years ago.
Meanwhile, your brilliant career services and support teams are drowning. Budget cuts mean fewer staff handling exponentially more complex student needs.
But here's what most institutions miss: your biggest student success challenges are actually learning problems.
Students struggling to decide their next steps?
Learning problem.Students struggling with graduate school application strategy?
Learning problem.Career services staff overwhelmed by complex guidance needs?
Learning problem.Alumni unable to articulate their degree's value to employers?
Learning problem.Faculty unsure how to advise students on non-academic career paths?
Learning problem.

The scale changes, but the question remains: how do we prepare students for success in ways that actually work?
