Abstract | To stand out in a crowded marketplace, every organization must find or create a competitive edge. Companies without a unique advantage get lost in a tide of rivals. In the context of higher education, the registrar's office rarely commands the resources to achieve dramatic overhauls. Rather, incremental innovation offers a far more efficient use of available human and material resources. This paper outlines a pathway to incremental innovation befitting the work of the registrar in the context of credential expansion. Although disruption is prominent in many stories of innovation, it is not the goal of the registrar. Rather, the registrar's goal is to identify areas of improvement in the nooks and crannies of institutional operations and service delivery that increase value for all stakeholders, whether students, employers, or partners. Nevertheless, incremental innovation may unintentionally amount to disruption, as was the case with Elon University's implementation of the Visual Experiential Transcript (Visual EXP). (ERIC). |
