- Design reports in PowerBI and Tableau that drive insights on learner engagement, progress, and conversion to new programs in higher education
- Identify learner pain points in the curriculum
- Improve and innovate with real-time A/B testing and assessment of content, curriculum and teaching delivery.
- Improve learner retention in higher education programs
- Identify and intervene with struggling or disengaged learners in real-time
