Clinton Community College Finds a Match in CAMS® Enterprise Software

Three Rivers Systems brings an all Web-based Academic ERP to Clinton Community College

ST. LOUIS, MO. September 15, 2009 – Clinton Community College, Plattsburgh, NY, had been running its own in-house administrative system for over 20 years when it concluded it was time to move to a new system. Clinton was looking for a commercially supported product that was based on standard technology, with a large established user base. After evaluating all the options, Clinton selected CAMS® Enterprise, the 100% Web-based academic ERP from Three Rivers Systems, Inc. (www.threeriverssystems.com)

CAMS® Enterprise provides Clinton with completely integrated functionality for the entire applicant–to–alumni student lifecycle, and offers the rapid implementation model that Clinton needed to quickly roll out new services and begin realizing gains in productivity immediately. With a refined implementation process that is measured in months – not years – the CAMS® solution was “right on” in this respect as well. Clinton was sold also on CAMS® ability to deliver information and services to its students via the Web, and a breadth of functionality that eliminates third party products and associated costs.

Clinton Community College learned of CAMS® Enterprise from a sister SUNY college, North Country Community College, which has been a satisfied member of the CAMS® community for over 15 years. “We were comfortable going with CAMS Enterprise because of Three Rivers’ proven track record serving the higher education community” said Rick Batchelder, Director of Management Information Systems at Clinton Community College. Today’s students want 24/7 access to up-to-date information, and to manage their lives and studies on mobile devices, said Amir Tajkarimi, Three Rivers’ President and founder. “Three Rivers Systems is pleased to help Clinton Community College move to the forefront using today’s technology.”
