Matching Gift
Processing
Presenter: Dave Smittle,
Ohio Northern University
With nearly one in 10 donors being match gift eligible,
matching gifts should be a vital component of any successful fundraising strategy. While this data can be loaded into

Uploaded matching gift rules, along with good employment
data on constituents, can result in Banner automatically
calculating an anticipated matching gift, meaning corporate
funding for institutions can be predicted, tracked and increased. This session will demonstrate how to successfully
implement the baseline-delivered interface between the
HEP electronic matching gift database and Banner Advancement.

Data Management
Presenter: Gary
Young, Kent State
University
Broad availability and the use of technology significantly increased the volume of information that Kent State
University currently stores. While more information is
closely linked to business expansion, recorded information is difficult and costly to manage in large quantities. The amount of stored information made effective
management of Banner data both a business priority
and a legal obligation that demanded the attention of
all executives, faculty, and staff. It was vital to curb
ongoing uncontrolled growth to meet compliance and
legal risk mitigation needs, improve system efficiency,
bolster asset leverage, increase productivity, and control costs. In this session, we'll examine the Banner
Data Management initiative, which formalizes the process of reviewing the records management policy, reviewing records retention schedules and engaging the
information services division, as needed, to manage
Banner data. The presentation will also review the delivered Banner purge/archive processes and what may
be needed to address the gaps.
IT Help Desk
Solutions That Help
You Help Your
Students
Presenters: Jann
Gillingham, Ellucian

to staff nights, weekends, and peak registration times for a
YouTube generation that expects support to be instantaneous? Is your staff complaining that they spend most of their
time answering routine inquiries rather than getting real work
done? Are students complaining that when they need help,
they get someone’s voicemail rather than an answer? Learn
how Ellucian’s Help Desk Services offer centralized, consistent, and professional support which allows your institution
to expand its service hours, improve service quality, reduce
response time, while enhancing your staff’s productivity. Learn how Ellucian’s continuous improvement process
provides visibility into metrics which are used to improve the
service and reduce the number of contacts.

Presenter: Sheryl
Lemma, Ellucian
Ellucian Mobile evolves the company’s previous mobile
solutions into one that spans the three core administrative
systems and unites the entire Ellucian customer community.
Ellucian Mobile brings together the best of Ellucian Mobile
Access and Ellucian Mobile Connection into a single new
approach to help colleges and universities advance mobile
initiatives faster and extend applications and services to a
broad range of campus stakeholders. Delivered as a platform that supports both native and web applications, Ellucian Mobile offers both deep integration with Ellucian solutions and flexible options to help customers extend the digital campus to include non-Ellucian applications. Institutions
can choose to implement an easily configurable pre-set
package of applications that can be fully launched in hours
or opt to build, customize, and manage their own mobile
environments. Come learn more about how Ellucian Mobile
can help people engage more easily with your institution.
