The fastest growing method of sending postsecondary transcripts is the use of PDF. In this session, the presenter will discuss the decision to use this method, the timeline for implementing, enhanced security and other benefits over paper and fax, and some volume data since implementation. In addition, hear about the potential you may have in your environment to leverage your Electronic Content Management (ECM) Solution to enable data extraction through OCR for processing into your Student Information System. There will be opportunities to ask questions and get answers to those burning questions on how to move forward and see what the potential is to make your systems more integrated.
