North Orange County Community College District (NOCCCD) had a strong five-year Strategic Enrollment Plan spanning Cypress College, Fullerton College, and North Orange Continuing Education. The challenge was keeping it moving once the planning was done and daily work took over.
Higher Digital works alongside the district’s own implementation lead, delivering Strategic Portfolio Management on the (SEA)results platform. Guided meetings keep seven cross-college action teams focused on the work, while executives and trustees get clear reporting on progress.
In one quarter, average completion rose from 13% to 35% across 100 action items. Baselines are set for six enrollment KPIs, with the first annual results due in 2026–27, and district leaders can now show trustees real progress.
“The managed services piece has been key for us. More than the tool, the partnership has been the most impactful piece.”
