Profiler
In the ever changing and competitive world of the education sector, the ability to geographically map learner data and stay ahead of the competition is of the utmost importance. With this in mind, Sirius7 developed Profiler.
Profiler is a bespoke mapping software package for the FE and HE sector. The easy-to-use functionality of Profiler can help inform your Widening Participation Strategy, show Participation Rates (when used in conjunction with demographic data) and map temporal change. It is ideal for making presentations to your College SMT and Governors, displaying complex tabulated data in a simple geographical map format. It is also an excellent tool for supporting college audits and inspections.
Target Markets
As well as being used for analysing historical learner data, Profiler is an ideal package for targeting key markets for future enrolments. Profiler can help:
- Target key demographics
- Highlight low performing areas
- Highlight and target disadvantage uplift areas
