Getting Started
EAB’s Strategic Advisory Services partnership serves colleges and universities across the U.S. and Canada. We provide research, insights, and actionable advice across EAB’s expert terrains—including higher education strategy, academic affairs, business affairs, student affairs, and enrollment management.
As part of the partnership, EAB works closely with leaders across campus to advance your institution’s top strategic priorities. In addition, all staff across campus have access to EAB’s online research portal and can download any practice or tool available. Staff may also participate in EAB best-practice webinars and attend executive roundtable meetings.
