Abstract
The University of Phoenix understands that in order to serve its large population of non-traditional students, it needs to rely on data. We have created a strong foundation with an integrated data repository that connects data from all parts of the organization. With this repository in place, we can now undertake a variety of analytics projects. One such project is an attempt to predict a student's persistence in their program using available data indicators such as schedule, grades, content usage, and demographics.
