ARCHIVUM USF has recently created a Case Management System (ARCHIVUM) to assist advisors in working with student populations to promote persistence and student success. At time of implementation, USF had been identifying and maintaining cohort populations externally to the Student Information System (SIS) – Banner. As an initial step, a student population was extracted from the external system (SIDS Database) and a cohort was defined in Banner and associated to students. This was prior to all criteria being ironed out and as a result, some of the assignments are incorrect. This was a stopgap measure due to time limitations and the purpose of this project is to redefine student cohorts in Banner and establish business process for maintenance. The cohorts will be used, not only for Case Management, but also for reporting purposes.
