2013 Q2 Special Report: Big Data, Big Expectations
Learn how to transform big data into powerful and actionable educational insights to improve student outcomes on your campus in this Special Report.
Absence management is a challenge for school districts across the nation. Schools often have little to no visibility into how leave is tracked and accrued, and must sometimes make huge payments unexpectedly as employees leave or are dismissed. This issue brief will look closely at new absenteeism research conducted by the Center for Digital Education and investigate absence management challenges in K-12 education. It will highlight the ways in which modern, automated workforce management systems can capture and deliver more accurate information about planned and unplanned absences. Better data gives school districts increased visibility into human capital management — which translates to major cost savings and optimized operations.
