Technology That Serves the Whole Student Journey
From enterprise platforms to IT staffing, Cooperdyne Tech helps higher education and K-12 institutions modernize operations, protect sensitive data, and build the technology capabilities needed to serve students across their entire lifecycle.
We Understand the Unique World of Education
Educational institutions operate in a complex environment. You balance academic missions with operational realities, manage aging enterprise systems while adopting new technologies, and protect sensitive student data under strict regulatory requirements.
At Cooperdyne Tech, we have built deep expertise serving colleges, universities, and K-12 districts. We understand the platforms you rely on: PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, Workday, Salesforce Education Cloud. We know the compliance frameworks you must follow: FERPA, GLBA, PCI DSS. And we appreciate the budget constraints, shared governance, and stakeholder dynamics that shape how decisions get made.
The Challenges Facing Education Technology Leaders
Many institutions run decades-old PeopleSoft implementations with layers of customizations that make upgrades painful and expensive. Caught between maintaining what works and modernizing for the future.
Student information lives in one system, HR in another, finance in a third. Creating a unified view for institutional research, student success, or accreditation reporting requires heroic manual effort.
Institutions implement Salesforce for admissions, then watch adoption flatline. The platform goes live, the investment doesn’t pay off.
Finding IT professionals who understand higher education and can work within academic culture is harder than ever. Competition with the private sector makes recruiting and retention a constant challenge.
Expectations for technology capabilities keep rising while budgets remain flat. You are asked to do more with less, every year.

We focus on all four outcomes: implementation success, user success, operational success, and financial success.
Your relationship with a constituent does not start at the admissions office. We help you design strategies that support every stage of the student journey.
We build compliance into every solution, ensuring your systems, processes, and reporting protect student privacy by design.
Not every IT professional thrives in higher education. We find candidates who understand and appreciate the unique culture of academic institutions.
How We’ve Helped Education Institutions
A large state university running a heavily customized PeopleSoft Campus Solutions environment needed to reduce technical debt and upgrade to a current PeopleTools release. We delivered a phased PeopleTools upgrade, Fluid UI adoption across student-facing self-service, and selective adoption of new Image functionality—reducing support overhead and modernizing the student experience.
A liberal arts college needed to consolidate fragmented admissions and student success workflows into a unified Salesforce platform. We implemented Salesforce Education Cloud as a full program—not a one-time project—covering admissions, student success advising, alumni engagement, and integration with the college’s SIS and LMS. Adoption metrics exceeded targets within the first academic year.
A research university needed a unified view of student retention risk across disconnected systems—SIS, LMS, financial aid, and advising. We built an integrated data pipeline and Power BI dashboard suite that gave academic advisors real-time visibility into at-risk students, enabling early intervention that measurably improved retention outcomes.
A large public university mid-way through a complex Workday HCM and Financials implementation needed certified consultant support across multiple functional workstreams after a previous vendor underperformed. We placed certified Workday consultants in HCM, Financial Management, and Integrations roles—stabilizing the project and delivering a successful go-live on the revised timeline.
