Buyer's Guide for Higher Ed Workforce Management Software

About This Resource

Workforce management (WFM) includes tools for scheduling student workers, tracking multiple jobs, managing diverse workforce such as faculty, salaried and hourly staff, and student employees. With cloud technology it’s easy to access WFM tools regardless of location. Employees and administrators alike can login via mobile, web and in-person solutions. WFM also allows institutions to make decisions based on labor tracking and job costing, and to leverage document management capabilities to avoid risk. It’s a key component of human resource management in higher education.

Thanks to technology, every industry – including higher ed – can now deploy workforce management software that supports the entire institution. Effective workforce management happens when higher education institutions integrate key WFM activities into one platform.
