In this role, I supervised campus-wide use of Ad Astra Academic Scheduling and Perceptive Content Document Management softwares. I was responsible for front-line support, user training, implementation of new functionality, security and the coordination of user testing during system upgrades. I had the unique privilege of serving on multiple implementation teams including the launch of the High Point Campus Experience product to improve the interface our students use for enrollment, schedule planning, messaging and tracking degree progress. I also served on the implementation team for the rollout of Advising Notes technology, which gave academic advisors new CRM functionality to communicate with students and track advising interactions. I was a member of the Academic Advising module within the Registrar's Office where I created and maintained 185+ degree plans within SMU's instance of PeopleSoft Campus Solutions. I also served on the Academic Scheduling team where I coordinated scheduling across SMU's eight schools and supervised the scheduling of courses, updates to the academic catalog, tracking of student enrollment and the utilization of classroom space across campus.
