Cutting edge page combines data
The Student Athletic Summary (SAS) Page project was started because the Athletic Certification process needed a tool to streamline the process and provide a central location for data and document storage. The Office of the Registrar needed to develop a tool that met the needs of the Academic Eligibility staff and worked within the technical ecosystem available.
This new page is cutting edge at UW–Madison and combines data into a more streamlined form. The multiple systems (e.g. DARS, SIS, the NCAA portal) our academic athletic eligibility specialists work with each have unique data elements, configuration and formatting needs, creating a cumbersome process. Additionally, this work is high profile and it is essential that the work be done accurately and in a timely fashion, highlighting the need for this project.
The project provided the following value,
- Administrative benefits, such as centralized data storage and maintenance
- Forwarded organizational goals for the RO, DEM, and campus
- Streamlined and clear tool to use for Student Athlete academic eligibility
