Hobsons and Noel-Levitz Collaborate to Meet Growing Demand for Enrollment Management Services


CINCINNATI, OH AND CENTENNIAL, CO, July 21, 2010—Hobsons, the leader in enrollment management technology (EMT) software, and Noel-Levitz, the recognized student retention and recruitment authority, today announced a strategic partnership. Through the alliance, the two market leaders will pool their best-in-class expertise and technologies to better serve colleges and universities.

As new challenges emerge in higher education, including increased competition, an uncertain economy, and changing student demographics, a growing number of institutions turn to constituent relationship management (CRM) to manage the entire student lifecycle. While some organizations seek CRM for the first time, others extend its use across the enterprise, beyond the admission office. All industry participants stand to benefit from the combined expertise of Hobsons and Noel-Levitz as they navigate this changing landscape.

“Hobsons has been a pioneer in providing enrollment management technology solutions for higher education. This is an ideal partnership that blends our respective strengths,” said Kevin Crockett, Noel-Levitz president and CEO.

“Noel-Levitz’s proven track record for strategic planning and retention and recruitment consulting services complements our enrollment management technology,” said Sasha Peterson, president of Hobsons EMT. “We look forward to exchanging ideas and market insight with the Noel-Levitz team and delivering the results of our combined expertise to the market.”
