Speakers Bureau - Registrar of the Future
The historical role of the registrar was as a record keeper to collect and maintain the student and course information. The integrity of the academic degree and record, as well as compliance with accreditor, institutional, state, and federal requirements
are also core tenants of the registrar’s historical/traditional role. As higher education evolves to become more focused on student outcomes and responsive to industry needs, the registrar must also transition from a transactional to a transformational
leader.
Speakers will share current trends shaping the role of the modern registrar. Potential speaking themes include:
The role of the registrar in student success
Creating a clear vision for the registrar’s office
Technology leadership for the registrar’s office and the campus
Changing the role of the registrar from implementer to strategic partner
Balancing innovation with compliance
Increasing the influence and visibility of a modern registrar
Speakers and the topics addressed are important for academic and administrative leaders across campus and not merely for registrars. Enrollment leaders, academic deans, continuing and online education administrators, and student success partners can all
benefit from the transformation of this role to meet the current and future needs of the institution.
