education to the military in the world and as a result we needed
to partner with a company such as Jenzabar that understands the
integration issues and complexities involved on our multiple campuses,"
said Sara Freeman, director of information technology, Park University.
"From the beginning of the JICS implementation to the end,
we look forward to installing the new software that will provide
our students, faculty and administrators their main gateway to Park
University and all of the services offered whether they are stationed
on Fairchild Air Force Base in Oregon or Moody Air Force Base in
Georgia or anywhere in between. This software tool will allow the
access to Park University to be customized for each student and
campus but will also give information about the "One University."
"With more than 41 campuses nationwide and an enrollment of
more than 21,000 Park University is one of the most complex, diverse
universities in the country, and we are thrilled to be working closely
with them on implementing JICS in the coming months," according
to Bob Maginn, chairman and CEO of Jenzabar, Inc. "Whether
it be a graduate school with 500 students, a small liberal arts
college with an enrollment of 2,000 or a university the size of
Park University with tens-of-thousands of students, Jenzabar provides
schools with a roadmap for reaching its mission and vision. We pride
ourselves in working closely with each school to overcome the many
technology challenges that occur on a typical campus."
