April 27, 2012

NHCC joined forces with Hobsons, a leader in recruitment, communication, and student success solutions for higher education, to help students achieve academic goals faster. NHCC advisors and students will start using AgileGrad, an online advising tool, to build individualized academic plans by Spring of 2013. 

Landon Pirius, NHCC Chief Student Affairs Officer, says “We are implementing AgileGrad because we want to help students meet graduation requirements for their chosen majors in the most time-efficient, cost-effective way. Students need to have realistic and achievable plans, and we want to help them be successful.” AgileGrad will also help NHCC advisors better track student goals and connect with students in a more proactive and personalized way.

North Hennepin Community College has been a leading provider of higher education in the northwest metropolitan area of the Twin Cities since 1966. Conveniently located at the intersection of 85th Avenue North and West Broadway in Brooklyn Park, NHCC’s 120-acre campus is rich with activity and diversity.
