Customer Champion Awards

Customers are at the core of everything PeopleAdmin does. Our solution is built for HigherEd, by HigherEd, with product developments and strategy guided by the feedback of our customer community.

Since the PeopleAdmin platform is so highly customizable, often our customers develop and use the solution in entirely new, innovative and distinct ways. This can create best practices that can be shared across the customer communities, solve problems others may encounter as well, or even inspire new product updates and enhancements that can benefit all institutions using the platform.

We recognize these innovative customer partners through our monthly Customer Champion Awards program. These are the best and brightest HigherEd HR leaders, helping to shape the future of the industry.
