EdTech and Infrastructure Panel: What’s New, What’s Needed for Credential Innovation?
Moderator: Kristi Wold-McCormick, University of Colorado Boulder
Panelists: Nicole Englebert, Oracle, Evan Claudeanos, Ellucian, Joellen Shendy, Workday, Raymond Blackwood, Anthology
In this panel discussion, we will hear from the leaders of major student information system (SIS) vendors who serve the higher education community. The panelists will discuss the technical infrastructure required to support the latest trends in credential innovation, including digital badges, micro-credentials, and competency-based education. They will explore the challenges and opportunities in adapting existing systems and developing new solutions to meet the needs of students, institutions, and employers.
The panelists will also address questions such as: How can institutions integrate new credentialing systems into their existing SIS platforms? What are the best practices for ensuring data accuracy and security? What is the vision for SIS learner systems to interact with each other and with HR earner systems with regard to the transfer of credentials and other student data? And what role can SIS vendors play in supporting institutions and shaping the future of credentialing in higher education?
Attendees can expect to gain valuable insights into the technical infrastructure required to support credential innovation in higher education in the future, and to learn about the strategies that their SIS vendors are using to help institutions keep pace with the changing landscape.
