Case Study: Online University improves student onboarding efficiency with Beyond Intranet

Online university simplifies and speeds up student onboarding process with SharePoint onboarding solution

The client, an online university, faced significant challenges in managing the complex, multi-departmental process of student onboarding and offboarding using manual methods and basic SharePoint. They struggled with document sharing, tracking approvals, and ensuring data security, which led to inefficiencies and a high administrative burden, especially during peak admission periods. Seeking to improve this process and reduce student attrition, the university discovered and implemented the Employee onboarding and offboarding add-in from vendor Beyond Intranet.

Beyond Intranet's solution provided a centralized SharePoint platform featuring customizable forms, automated task assignments, and a secure document repository. This streamlined the entire workflow, giving staff clear visibility into pending tasks and sending automated reminders. The implementation resulted in a 35% reduction in student processing costs, a 50% increase in student retention, and significant time savings through reduced paperwork and improved operational efficiency.
