At the same time, it allows you and your leadership team to assess the future and opportunities to improve and restructure rather than remain at the status quo. It “buys you time” and is a sound strategic initiative. Quality interim appointments are a sound business practice. focusEDU can help your institution during these times. Our interim appointees have held national leadership positions within their respective professional associations of AACRAO, NACAC, NASFAA and NACUBO.

Testimonials
“focusEDU was great to work with for the selection and placement of a temporary, interim Registrar. We highly recommend focusEDU Consulting Firm over other firms!!”
I had the great opportunity to meet and interact with Herb last summer. He is such an experienced professional– such an exquisite mentor in the area of higher education and specifically, our shared area of Registrar. He offered me tremendous advice and guidance, and I very much wished that I had had the opportunity to work directly with him in the Registrar’s Office. He would be a major asset to any university as an experienced consultant
