Having spent a significant amount of time with school administrators and faculty at various levels, Matthew Schnittman, President and CEO at Helix Education knows they face many challenges; the foremost being increasing successful student outcomes. “The best student-centric solutions that lower the cost of graduation for the student and the institution require the right data, the right technologies, and the right partners. When these factors come together, an institution can truly understand their student as an individual and provide a more personalized educational experience,” says Schnittman.

Headquartered in Salt Lake City, UT, Helix Education’s full suite of comprehensive enterprise services and technologies span the student life cycle, helping higher education institutions find, enroll, retain, and teach students. The company utilizes data-driven insights to deliver services and technologies that schools need, but cannot effectively achieve on their own.

Helix Retain and Helix LMS are the newest key technology platforms developed by the company. “All of our technology platforms are built to aggregate and analyze data, provide insights, and initiate meaningful and actionable steps to improve student starts, retention, learning outcomes, and satisfaction,” remarks Schnittman.

Helix Retain is a powerful early-alert and intervention system designed to improve student outcomes by allowing the institution to leverage big data and proactively identify student risk indicators. It offers unique abilities unlike any other platform; such as the ability to pull and use data from institutional sources including lead information, SIS, and LMS platforms including Helix LMS.
