Collaboration will yield deeper insight into student behaviors and enable actions designed to lift retention and success rates
April 9th, 2018, New York, NY – Macmillan Learning, a premier learning solutions company, today announced a strategic partnership between Skyfactor (formerly EBI MAP-Works) and N2N Services. For more than twenty years, Skyfactor has empowered hundreds of higher education institutions to harness data from the college experience in ways that materially impact retention, persistence, and student success rates. The Skyfactor product suite features two award-winning offerings, the Mapworks student success and retention service, and the Benchworks program assessment instrument. This new collaboration with software integration provider N2N Services will provide tools and API’s that automate data exchanges between Mapworks and Learning Management Systems (LMS) or Student Information Systems (SIS). Through this partnership with N2N, administrators, faculty, and student support staff will have even deeper insight into the lives and behaviors of students, which will enable them to better serve their student populations.
“Too often information about student performance, financial aid, new student enrollment, and fees are stored in disparate data systems found throughout an institution’s infrastructure. Compartmentalizing data in this way, while typical, can be counterproductive to achieving the type of holistic perspective many higher education institutions are seeking to acquire,” explained Macmillan Learning Institutional General Manager, Craig Bleyer. This is why we are thrilled to work closely with N2N, as this partnership provides customers with a 360-degree view of the student experience, which is integral to the mission of Skyfactor and the expectations from the marketplace.”
N2N's Illuminate is a turnkey API integration platform specifically built for the needs of higher education. Illuminate includes modules to build, secure, integrate, and share APIs. The platform can be used for integrations of all types and by any sized institution. Illuminate allows institutional business users to easily connect their systems, whether on premise, hosted, or in the cloud easily and securely.
“N2N is pleased to partner with Skyfactor to enable real-time data integration. We’re confident that Skyfactor's student success and retention solutions, powered by N2N’s integration strategy, will provide real-time and interactive solutions needed to support students, faculty, and staff worldwide,” said Kiran Kodithala CEO and founder of N2N Services Inc. “N2N is committed to collaborations, such as with Skyfactor, that have a direct impact on student success and student progress towards graduation.”
Institutions who utilize the integrated instance of Skyfactor and N2N will always be able to access real-time student data to leverage throughout interventions and remediation actions, with integration available for use beginning fall 2018.
