Education Process as a Service (EPaaS)
We manage the heavy lifting for you.
Education Process as a Service (EPaaS) is the engine that powers your educational offerings through our best-in-class business processes and communication tools enabled by our curated technology ecosystem, giving you smart growth.
For more than a decade, universities have accelerated their online program results using Elsmere Education’s proven processes and systems as part of its Online Program Enablement (OPE) solution. Now, Elsmere is delivering these core success drivers in a subscription format called Education Process as a Service (EPaaS). This empowers institutions like yours to use EPaaS as the foundation for all your marketing, recruiting and retention activities for non-traditional students. Our flexible EPaaS solution integrates with your existing staffing model and scales to meet your needs. You can leverage our team or yours or a mix. The choice is yours.
We’ve Heard Your Frustrations!
Do you have systems and processes in place to serve the unique needs of non-traditional students and online adult learners? Most universities do not. We’ve heard your frustrations and developed a powerful solution for serving online adult learners. Here are common challenges among university leaders that EPaaS can help solve:
- Requirement to use campus systems built to serve traditional residential students
- Lack of access to best-in-class CRM platform
- Limited visibility into prospective student pipelines
- Inability to reconcile enrollment results with marketing investments
- Reliance on manual workflows to execute and monitor the student journey
- Burdensome procurement processes that slow access to emerging technologies
