Data analysis is an increasingly important job function for admission professionals. Particularly, entry and mid-level professionals are often required to analyze the pipeline of prospective students and make decisions based on patterns found in data. While data analysis has become a necessary job skill, training for these positions rarely includes a data component.
The National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) recently convened focus groups to develop a white paper on data training needs. It will form the basis of new curriculum development for entry and mid-level professionals.
