HPI International’s cutting-edge technology is changing the way higher education institutions approach the academic success of their students. With its unique combination of artificial intelligence and predictive psychology, HPI is transforming higher education and helping institutions provide personalized and effective support to drive the academic success of their students.

Technology is rapidly transforming the world around us, and the field of higher education is no exception. Higher education institutions need to be on the cutting edge of technology in order to provide their students with the tools and support they need to succeed in their academic and professional careers. This is where HPI International has developed cutting-edge technology that combines artificial intelligence and predictive psychology to help higher education institutions achieve student success in an innovative, high-impact and high-quality way.

The technology developed by HPI uses machine learning algorithms to analyze large amounts of student data, such as their academic history, study behavior and performance patterns, to predict students’ academic success or failure. In addition, information such as students’ psychological factors, motivation, confidence and engagement can be obtained, helping institutions to better understand their students and provide personalized support.

HPI International’s technology is not only innovative, but also highly effective. Results show that institutions that have used HPI’s technology have significantly improved student retention, academic performance and graduation rates. This is because it provides institutions with detailed insight into their students and allows them to take preventative measures to help students overcome obstacles before it is too late.

HPI has two types of solutions to help higher education institutions attract more students and improve their educational success, one of them is HPI Students Success, which is specifically designed to help improve academic performance, ensure graduation profiles and accompany students throughout their educational cycle, achieving student success. And another of the solutions developed by HPI is HPI Attracting Success, which helps attract more students to its programs, at all levels and modalities, providing high-value information generated by artificial intelligence and predictive psychology.

Higher Education Institutions are fundamental for the development of any country. However, these institutions face multiple challenges that impact their sustainability and projection into the future. Competition in the educational market and changes in the current environment are some of the elements that may affect their proper functioning.

For this reason, it is essential that Higher Education Institutions adapt to the new elements and prepare themselves adequately to face the challenges of the future. In this sense, the Attracting Success Suite can be a valuable tool to help institutions in their process of adaptation and continuous improvement.

The Attracting Success Suite focuses on three institutional challenges that are fundamental to the success of any educational institution: attracting and building a closer bond with prospective undergraduate, graduate and continuing education students, consuming their system and teams with high-value information, and improving new and returning enrollment results.

The first challenge facing institutions is to attract and build closer ties with prospective students. In an increasingly competitive educational market, it is essential for institutions to establish a close relationship with their potential students. To achieve this, the Attracting Success Suite offers assessments that add value to visitors, allowing students to learn more about the institution and its educational programs. In this way, the institution will be able to attract students who are truly interested in its educational offerings.

The second challenge is to provide the system and the teams with high-value information. In this sense, the Attracting Success Suite allows institutions to focus their admissions process on tailored support, increasing their conversion rate by up to 4x. With this tool, institutions will be able to have a personalized follow-up with students, which will allow them to know their needs and offer them solutions adapted to their requirements.

Finally, the third challenge is to improve the results of new and recurrent enrollments. In this sense, the Attracting Success Suite incorporates artificial intelligence and predictive psychology into the system, allowing institutions to improve their enrollment results and retain their students. This tool will enable institutions to anticipate students’ needs and desires, offering them educational programs and solutions tailored to their requirements.

The Attracting Success Suite is a valuable tool for Higher Education Institutions wishing to improve their sustainability and future projection. This tool allows institutions to attract and build a closer relationship with prospective students, provide their system and their teams with high-value information, and improve new and returning enrollment results. With these tools, institutions will be able to adapt to the new elements of the educational environment and adequately face the challenges of the future.

Universidad de Las Américas, founded in 1988 in Santiago, Chile, is a private higher education institution with more than 30,000 students in all modes of study. In order to improve its admissions process for new students, the university decided to implement HPI International’s Attracting Success solutions starting in 2020.

HPI International’s Attracting Success Suite offers a wide range of solutions to help higher education institutions improve their student attraction and selection process, using tools such as assessments, artificial intelligence and predictive psychology to better understand prospective students and accompany them in their decision to join the institution.

In the case of Universidad de Las Américas, the implementation of Attracting Success solutions allowed the institution to increase its level of enrollment of new students in undergraduate programs by 6% annually, in all the modalities offered by the institution. In addition, prospective students can learn about their personal qualities and receive guidance focused on their talents and preferences, enhancing their experience and increasing their motivation to become part of the university’s educational community.

Universidad de Las Américas has decided to continue using these solutions for the next few years, demonstrating the great value they have generated to its admissions process for new students. The institution has found these solutions to be an effective tool for improving its admissions process, which has resulted in an increase in its undergraduate enrollment. This success story exemplifies how technology can be a great ally for higher education and how Attracting Success’ solutions enabled the institution to increase its level of new undergraduate enrollment can make a significant difference in the student admissions process.

Undoubtedly, these solutions represent a great opportunity for educational institutions looking to improve their admissions process and attract the students that best fit their academic offerings.

HPI International is proud to have been selected to participate in Startup Olé 2023, one of the most important events of innovation and entrepreneurship in Latin America. The event will take place in the city of Santiago on March 13th and 14th, where HPI International will have the opportunity to expose and present the business model to different international investors.

Startup Olé is one of the most important technological events in Europe. It is a great event that connects startups and tech-digital talent with companies, investors, accelerators, universities, public administrations and European media. This event brings together thousands of people from all over the world with the aim of accelerating startups and supporting entrepreneurs. From HPI International we are excited to be part of this event and to have the opportunity to meet other players in the technology entrepreneurial ecosystem.

In addition, HPI International has the opportunity to be selected to present in Salamanca, Spain. Isaías Sharon Ceo founder of HPI says “This is a great achievement for the company, as it will be a unique opportunity to present the project to a wider audience and meet with investors to publicize all the technological innovation we are doing in order to improve the world of higher education, using artificial intelligence and predictive psychology”.

HPI International’s participation in Startup Olé is an important milestone for the company and demonstrates a commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship. The company hopes to make the most of this opportunity to connect with other players in higher education to continue to grow and expand the project.

“The institution should be actively alert to changes in behavior, mood, repeated absences or problems in student performance,” said Isaías Sharon, a specialist in education and mental health.

While entering higher education opens up great opportunities, it also involves coping with the challenges of the transition to adulthood. This period of “emerging adulthood” (18-28 years of age) is often accompanied by a distance from families and places of origin, the need to balance studies with employment, economic difficulties and uncertainty about the future, among others.

According to the study “Diagnosis of the prevalence of mental health disorders in university students and associated emotional risk factors” in Chile there is a high rate of anxious and depressive symptomatology in this population, particularly among female students, being higher than the national average in the corresponding age groups.

Isaías Sharon, psychologist, Doctor in education and new technologies and founder of HPI International, assured that the current figures show that in the last year the licenses associated with mental health problems in higher education students doubled.

“It is quite worrying because this leads to students today with high levels of stress, with panic crisis problems, with depression crises, also with ideation (which is the prelude to suicide) and with suicide attempts, which many of them materialize in self-harm. The latter have also increased up to three times in relation to previous years”, said the expert in education and mental health.

When asked about what higher education institutions should do, Sharon expressed that “although it is not the focus of the institution to attend to this, what it should do is to prevent it and for that the first thing is to measure and recognize what the state is in relation to the mental health and well-being of the students”. The problem, he said, is that the institutions do not have the technological tools or the operational capacity to do this.

“The institution should be actively alert to changes in behavior, mood, repeated absences or problems in the performance of students who previously did not have this problem in order to be able to provide timely help and, on the other hand, incorporate new technological processes that help to do this in volume,” concluded the expert.

The proposal for regionalization of Higher Education is not only framed in the Development Plan of the Rector of the University of Caldas, Fabio Hernando Arias Orozco, but is also aligned with the vision of the National Government to strengthen access to public higher education, a topic that was central to last Thursday’s meeting of the State University System, where the 34 Rectors of the country’s public universities participated in the presence of the President of the Republic, Gustavo Petro and the Minister of National Education, Alejandro Gaviria.

One of the strategies proposed by the Government for the expansion of coverage is the regionalization of the university system, with branches in the territories, for which it announced 500,000 new places in the country. The Rector of the Universidad de Caldas, Fabio Arias Orozco expressed that, taking into account the progress of the University in the regions with the double degree in rural areas, now the bet aligned to the proposal of the National Government will be to expand the articulation of the academic offer to schools in urban areas, The aim is to accompany the young people with their complete higher education cycle in one of the four sites that will be promoted, such as Manizales, La Dorada, Riosucio or Anserma, a bet that will help in the implementation of the new quotas presented by the Minister of Education.

After the productive meeting, it was agreed to continue working together with the Government and thus advance in the reforms and expand coverage to reach the goal of 500 thousand new quotas to be implemented at 30 thousand quotas per semester, that is, 60 thousand per year.
