TYSONS, Va. - May 13, 2019 - PRLog -- Higher Digital, the leading digital strategic advisor to higher education institutions, today announced that the Independent College Enterprise(ICE) selected (SEA)RESULTS®, a digital transformation assessment tool. (SEA)RESULTS will allow ICE-member schools to independently benchmark technology and best practices against similar institutions to identify possible gaps.

ICE leadership will receive aggregated benchmark data from member schools to gain holistic insight into the consortium's current state of digital transformation, enabling the development of solutions to the mutual challenges faced by members.

"We chose Higher Digital as our technology consultant because they affordably offer unbiased advice, a powerful assessment tool, and numerous years of combined expertise and experience in higher education technology," said ICE CEO, Shelley Nason. "Each of our member schools is excited to learn where their technology stands compared with institutions of comparable size. With this data, we will then explore common technologies and best practices that support our members' enrollment and retention strategies."

Higher Digital's CEO and Co-Founder, Wayne Bovier, commented, "For nearly two decades, ICE consortium schools have united to build and manage an extraordinary array of technology solutions. Higher Digital is honored to partner with them to make data-driven business decisions supported by enterprise-wide technology expertise to accelerate the improvement of student and staff services."
