Three Rivers Systems Shows ‘Disruptive’ CAMS Enterprise, Offers White Paper at MCCA Annual Conference in St. Louis
St. Louis, MO (PRWEB) October 29, 2013 -- Three Rivers Systems Inc. is demonstrating CAMS® Enterprise, the "disruptive" technology choice for academic management at the Missouri Community College Association annual meeting this week in St. Louis. A disruptive technology is an innovation creating a new market that “disrupts” an existing one by displacing earlier technology.
A statewide organization with 34 member community colleges, MCCA advocates common agendas while providing education, information and networking opportunities for Missouri’s 5,700 community college faculty, staff, administrators and trustees.
Community colleges across the country are a popular choice given their many benefits for students: cost savings from lower tuition fees and being able to live at home; smaller classes and a focus on individualized instruction; more time to decide on a major and to try new areas of interest; closer to family and community support and full- or part-time jobs; as well as access to niche training programs to accommodate local job markets.
Caught between rising demand and shrinking funding, community colleges must find innovative ways to meet this disruptive environment head-on. These and other issues are described in a white paper Three Rivers Systems is offering without charge to MCCA attendees this week.
Titled “Community Colleges Do More With Less," the white paper documents how two-year colleges have emerged as a popular, affordable results-driven choice in the new economics of higher education.
“To keep pace with disruptive events, community colleges need a disruptive technology to manage their academic and business operations,” Three Rivers Systems President and Founder Amir Tajkarimi said. “They need CAMS Enterprise, which is a 21st century academic management system that’s unlike other academic ERPs that are based on antiquated technology.”
Tajkarimi added that CAMS Enterprise is especially valuable in leveraging limited assets for community colleges due to its unmatched ability to increase productivity and ROI.
