Jenzabar Vice President of Client Relations Sashi Parthasarathi will speak at the conference, examining how technology can be utilized to drive success in enrollment, retention, and advancement.
Jenzabar is among a select group of technology thought leaders sponsoring the international conference, which is organized around the theme of ''Dazzling technologies: Seismic shifts in higher education in a fast-changing and unequal world.'' The executive heads and other speakers will share their expertise and experiences with technology in higher education. Jenzabar's Sashi Parthasarathi will deliver a special presentation titled ''Effective Strategies for Enrollment & Retention Success: Lessons Learned and Best Practices in the United States.''
"On behalf of Jenzabar, I am honored to speak to this important audience to provide insight into the uses of technology by U.S. institutions, express the vital role software plays in higher education, and share success stories," Parthasarathi commented.

The 2008 Conference of Executive Heads will bring together over 400 leaders of tertiary education institutions from across the British Commonwealth. It is believed that this will be one of the largest gatherings of university heads ever held. The first ACU Conference of Executive Heads was held in Bristol, United Kingdom, over 60 years ago. Attendance at Conferences of Executive Heads is restricted to the executive heads of member institutions, or their nominated representatives.
About The Association of Commonwealth Universities
Established in 1913, the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU) is the oldest inter-university network in the world. The ACU's 500 members are spread across five continents. Although the membership represents a diverse range of institutions, there are many common challenges facing all universities. As such, the ACU provides forums for universities in Australasia, Canada and the UK to benchmark their research contract/grant activity, and for those in Africa and South Asia to compare their extension work programs. At a time when tertiary education has never been higher on the development agenda, the ACU's experience in fostering collaboration between developed and developing country universities has never been more relevant or important.
