UMUC is committed to providing high quality education that is accessible to all as an open access institution while lowering costs. Leveraging predictive analytics and effective learner interventions are critical to our strategy. UMUC developed a Student Success Initiative to evaluate the potential for predictive analytics to improve student outcomes and selected Civitas Learning as a key strategic partner. Since spring 2013, UMUC has engaged in three pilots utilizing predictive analytics to apply targeted interventions to improve course completion rates. UMUC will share empirical results, insights regarding predictive variables and student risk factors, as well as lessons learned.
