Georgia Gwinnett College has partnered with the National Institute for Student Success (NISS) at Georgia State University to further strengthen our efforts in student enrollment, retention, graduation and overall success. GGC’s President and Provost serve as project sponsors and In 2025, the College launched our implementation of the NISS Playbook with four key working groups: Proactive Advising, First-Year Student Experience, Academic Data, and Strategic Communications. We anticipate that our engagement with NISS in the rest of 2025 and 2026 will shape our strategic priorities, to the benefit of our students’ increased retention, degree completion, and career success. To that end, GGC is also committed to utilizing technology in innovative ways to further student success. Examples to be highlighted in the coming year include increased use of Stepping Blocks and reviewing tools that utilize Generative AI to enhance student support.
