Institutions across higher education are using the EDUCAUSE Core Data Service (CDS) to inform strategic decisions, optimize IT investments, and benchmark staffing and services against peer organizations. Whether it’s supporting budget planning, advocating for resources, or guiding transformation initiatives, CDS equips institutional leaders at all levels with trusted data and peer benchmarks to drive informed, strategic decisions. Join us for a live QuickTalk where we’ll share how CDS is evolving to better serve your needs—including recent and upcoming enhancements to the platform. We’ll also preview the 2025 CDS survey, open from September 15 through December 12, and offer tips to make participation easier and more impactful. Bring your questions and ideas—we look forward to hearing from you and helping you get the most from CDS.
