The Slate Captain is the owner, lead strategist, and technical administrator for Slate at an institution, ultimately responsible for ensuring the CRM drives admissions and enrollment success.

But what happens when your ship sets sail without a Captain at the helm? Staffing changes, policy shifts, medical leaves, or budget adjustments can suddenly leave you adrift in the middle of an admissions cycle, struggling to navigate the complexities of your Slate instance without clear leadership.

Join us as we share how Northern Kentucky University charted a path forward by engaging a Carnegie Embedded Slate Captain. With our support, NKU tackled international application processing, workflow development, dual-enrollment challenges, and ad hoc audits, ultimately gaining the stability and guidance needed to prepare confidently for the 2026 cycle.

We work with institutions of all sizes that are anticipating Slate Captain departures or temporary leaves. If your team is navigating similar transitions, now is the time to prepare. Learn how you can stay afloat by addressing workload constraints, capacity challenges, and onboarding additional Slate support before the tides turn.
