This Stop and Share will explore the latest trends and innovations in next generation ERP solutions for higher education, including cloud-based solutions, AI-powered analytics, and mobile-first design. I would like to discuss with institutions the benefits and challenges of implementing these systems and explore strategies for successful implementation and adoption.
