The partnership unveils a new era in educational excellence and technological integration.

Liaison and the National Association of Higher Education Systems (NASH) announce a first-of-its-kind partnership that will accelerate student access and foster success across the United States using Liaison’s Centralized Application Service (CAS).  By adopting an application strategy that prioritizes student pathways, the system is designed to streamline enrollment and transfers, significantly reducing administrative burdens and inefficiencies. Functioning as a centralized access point, CAS simplifies the application process, allowing students to apply to multiple campuses and programs within each system using a single application. The partnership brings together NASH’s commitment to increasing college attainment rates through systemness and Liaison’s technological prowess in data and analytics and higher education expertise.

The CAS platform is designed to address the unique enrollment needs of each public system, covering aspects like branding, data protocols, integration, and advanced analytics. CAS plays a pivotal role in facilitating student pathways, guiding them seamlessly from high school through community college, undergraduate and graduate studies, and onward to the workforce. This comprehensive journey ensures sustained student engagement and a strong connection to systems in each state.

The collaboration is poised to offer innovative solutions to meet the growing demands of students and policymakers for accessible pathways to higher education and workforce development. It provides the foundation for a consolidated enrollment experience, expands system-wide student access, and equips systems with scalable, sustainable pathways to public higher education.

With Liaison’s technology, the partnership will enable all participating systems to connect and leverage data for individual system’s enrollment and student success objectives.

The partnership also addresses national trends, providing comparative data to inform decisions related to legislative goals and mandates. It also opens doors for the development of new initiatives, thereby enhancing the overall educational landscape.
