Recommendations for optimal rollout and use include:
Build a collection of units to effectively amplify your campus’ utilization of the data. The following units traditionally find value in at least one of the two platforms:
| Graduate Insights (Staff/Admin Platform) | Digital Career Counselor (Student Platform) |
Institutional Research | Yes | Sometimes |
Career Services | Yes | Yes |
Academics | Yes | Yes |
Advancement/Alumni Relations | Yes | Sometimes |
Marketing/Enrollment Management | Yes | Yes |
Senior Leadership | Yes | Sometimes |
Students | No | Yes |
Identify a point of contact for each unit using the platform who will serve as an internal owner. This will provide us with a reliable point of contact to reach out to with updates and information sharing about the platforms. This person can also function as that units admin, inviting new people to the platform.
Develop clear and concise use cases for the data with each unit to help them leverage graduate outcomes data for student, departmental and institutional success. Our team is readily available to meet with individual units to discuss how the data can be optimally utilized.

Continue meeting with your Steppingblocks Partner Success Associate. We find meeting every 2-4 weeks over the first few months is ideal for answering questions, scheduling additional trainings, and staying on track with your adoption plan.
