American postsecondary institutions are faced with a growing financial crisis that threatens the quality, availability, and economics of the higher education system. Within this climate of economic uncertainty and decline, higher education is under pressure to restructure and reform its processes and contributions to society and to provide evidence of return on investment while using as few institutional resources as possible. In an effort to address these challenges, college and university administrators attempt to guide their institutions by becoming more focused on data-based decision making. This book provides an overview of Rapid Insight(R)'s Veera and how it can be used to address many difficulties confronting postsecondary institutions attempting to engage in meaningful data-based decision making. It is not intended to be an in-depth reference manual for the product, but, rather, to motivate novices to use Veera and to expose experienced users to real-world examples and tips.
