Risely for community college districts
Make the district's work reach each college.
Risely's agents work inside the district identity system, the aid platform and attendance accounting a district and its colleges already run. They do the work a staff member would do and bring it back finished for the vice chancellor of business services to approve.
Business services and apportionment
Apportionment should reconcile before census closes.
Risely's agents read each college's census roster and build the district claim line by line while census is still open. You close census with the claim already reconciled, and every line names the roster it came from.
District IT
One identity should follow a ticket anywhere.
Risely's agents close the routine tickets at whichever college raised them and route the rest to a person with the student's full enrollment attached. Your service desk opens one ticket and sees every college she attends.
The board of trustees
The trustees should get one number for the district.
Risely's agents count each college's census under one district definition, whatever date that census falls on. Your trustees read the same figure the apportionment claim was built from.
Each college's own front door
A verification queue should not be built four times.
Risely's agents write the verification queue once at the district and open it at every college underneath. Your newest college opens with the same queue your founding college runs, and each keeps its own aid officer.
Four colleges, one student.
The district identity system assigns one number. Each college's student system holds the same person under another. She moves between them without either side noticing.
Risely Fabric joins them, which is what makes a district number and a college record the same fact.
Institutional support spending runs $2,150 per student at the smallest California community colleges against $1,329 at the largest, according to IPEDS finance data.
