STARS SYSTEM UPDATE
Just as there are small stars and large stars, we are always adding small and large updates to our amazing system. We add enhancements to STARS in response to suggestions from clients, trends in technology, software capabilities, and strategic solutions.
Keeping up with the latest technology, we are proud to announce that STARS now resides on the latest incredible IBM Power9 Enterprise Server.
No other school management system provides the reliability, security and speed of STARS.

THE STARS CAMPUS SOLUTIONS TEAM IS LOVING OUR NEW OFFICE!
The beautiful professional environment allows us to work independently with our clients in separate offices and together as a team in our conference area. Our favorite spot just might be the kitchen! If you’re ever in our area, please stop by! There’s always coffee brewing, snacks on the table and some inspiration!
“Today is like coffee. It will be as good as you make it!”
CASE STUDY: IMPROVING YOUR SHOW RATE
Wiggins Career Institute school director, Tom Wilson, is very proud of the way the school’s admissions and student finance teams work together. They present the school to potential students providing accurate information during interviews and appointments. Almost 85% of the students who attend interviews and tour the campus enroll. Tom and his team struggle with getting more of those students who enroll to actually start classes. They aren’t happy with a 42% show rate.
Tom contacted Joel, the STARS admissions specialist, and set up the autoresponder tool with a series of announcements and other informational pieces that will keep these students motivated and eager to get started with their career training. Tom even has his instructors sending welcome messages, and it takes very little time! The show rate at Wiggins Career Institute is improving!
