Transfer Strategy Spotlight Series

The Transfer Strategy Spotlight Series consists of three sessions aligned with EAB’s Transfer Maturity Curve.

The Transfer Maturity Curve is a tool designed for partners to assess progress towards optimal adoption and strategic utilization of the Transfer Portal and prioritization of transfer best practices over time. It focuses on three categories: foundation, awareness, and yield and support.

This series provides individuals in various campus roles with opportunities to hear directly from and on behalf of partner institutions to learn about tested and successful practices and consider how these practices can be carried out on their own campuses. Attendees can engage with other attendees in live conversation during each session.
