Academic Performance Solutions Resource Hub

The Academic Performance Solutions (APS) platform is a web-based technology that brings together HR, finance, and SIS data to empower academic and administrative leaders with insights about academic resource efficiency, costs, instructional capacity, and more.

Partners often leverage APS data in their core planning processes, like annual department health check-ups, program review, faculty line requests, and course planning. Use this resource to map out your institution’s own processes. In addition to the technology, APS partners receive wrap-around services to learn about platform functionality and engage with other users.  

Log into your institution’s APS platform to explore your data and use it to inform upcoming decisions. Note that your institution may have single sign on enabled, which will affect the way you log into the platform. Check out the Resource Center: Help & Training dashboard for help resources like tutorial videos. Contact your APS Strategic Leader or [email protected] with any questions.
