Student Experience Process

The challenge:

Notre Dame's education auxiliaries needed a unified platform for rapidly prototyping work processes and addressing confusion around data compliance. They sought more straightforward workflows to improve feedback and data security.

The transformation:

By importing their data into Lucidchart, Notre Dame was able to create detailed visual models and analyze data relationships with Neo4j. This enabled them to discover previously hidden data paths and secure their workflows effectively.

The results:

  • Visibility: A unified view of data flows, improving communication among stakeholders.
  • Visualization: Lucidchart enabled clear, efficient visual communication of complex processes.
  • Security: Ensured compliance with data frameworks like FERPA, with no ambiguity around data security.

Transformation story

Augie, Notre Dame's campus data steward, now uses Lucidchart to help faculty better understand and secure their data workflows. With centralized control and visibility, Augie can differentiate access for advisors, professors, and administrators, ensuring FERPA compliance. This collaboration with Lucid has also allowed Notre Dame to improve student onboarding processes and eliminate inefficiencies, benefiting the entire faculty.
