How the Hub Works

The Hub offers toolkits, case studies, webinars, reports, and other supporting materials. Resources are organized by focus area to help institutions find what best fits their priorities.

Yes. Resources can be used individually or combined to support broader planning and implementation efforts. You can start with a single toolkit or explore multiple resources across focus areas.

Identify a challenge or strategic priority at your institution, then browse the toolkits by focus area to find resources that match your needs. The focus area sections on this page can help you navigate where to begin.

Resources are designed for higher education professionals — including chief business officers, provosts, budget officers, and student success teams — who are working to align financial decisions with student outcomes. They are especially effective when used by cross-functional teams.

Institutions use Hub resources to assess current practices, facilitate cross-functional conversations, identify opportunities for improvement, and develop actionable plans. Teams may apply them to a specific project or integrate them into ongoing planning, budgeting, and continuous improvement processes.

You do not need an account to browse Hub public resources. Creating a free Hub account provides full access to the toolkits and Toolkit Finder, along with a personalized dashboard and updates about new resources and site enhancements.
