Education
Improving Student Achievement
K-12 school districts are feeling the pressure of trying to prepare students for a global economy, often on a shoe string budget. Solutions that support teaching, accountability and alignment among all of the stakeholders are key to providing the best education possible.

Mariner's Performance Management Scorecards and Dashboards give stakeholders the ability to monitor, manage and analyze performance from the individual student all the way to the district level. We help administrators use performance management data to improve decision-making, organizational learning and accountability.

  • Education Dashboard Jumpstarts are trailblazing experiences for school districts interested in exploring dashboards for decision support. Jumpstarts serve as a risk mitigation strategy by bridging the gap between the abstract and the actual dashboard. It enables stakeholders to see, touch and interact with a dashboard, creating a common vernacular for stakeholders to further define their needs.
  • Education Performance Management Solutions are for those school districts that are ready to implement a comprehensive approach to performance management. Mariner builds solutions to help you: monitor key performance metrics for planning, budgeting and student achievement; uncover areas of poor performance; and develop possible remediation options. See a  sample K12 performance management solution here. To view the sample K12 demo using Windows Media Player, click here. You must have Windows Media Player which can be downloaded at the Microsoft website.

Our Data Warehousing Solutions help educators and administrators get the information they need without affecting the transactional systems, student records or other sensitive data. They enable school districts to integrate, store and access their data for reports, analytics, scorecards and dashboards. The data warehouse also serves as a data clearinghouse, combining data from a variety of systems and providing a single view of a student, school or school district.
