Piedmont International University Selects the Jenzabar One Student Information System

Private Institution Upgrades to Modern, Scalable Solution


Boston, MA – February 8, 2018 — Jenzabar®, Inc., higher education’s trusted software and services advisor, has announced that Piedmont International University has chosen Jenzabar One to replace their current student information system. The institution’s selection committee unanimously selected Jenzabar after recognizing the sustainable attributes of the system and overall vision of Jenzabar One.

“We needed a student information system that keeps us on the cutting edge of innovation,” said Devin Purgason, Director of Marketing and Website Operations at PIU. “By partnering with Jenzabar, we will have the ability to automate many aspects of our student information system that currently require time-consuming manual data entry. Jenzabar One will give our staff more time to serve students, rather than entering data.”

Established in 1945, Piedmont International University is a leader in innovative, bible-centered higher education. The private Christian institution has completed five mergers over the last ten years, most recently with John Wesley University, Tennessee Temple University, and Southeastern Bible College. Due to these alliances, PIU has been positioned on a platform of growth and was seeking a technology solution that could support that growth.

With scalability and efficiency as high priorities, the Jenzabar One solution is a natural fit for PIU. Jenzabar One is a suite of products that allows institutions to tailor the solution to their campuses’ needs. Throughout the selection process, Jenzabar’s trusted advisors are available as a resource to guide clients to the product set that’s right for them. The solution has been proven to streamline inefficiencies across the student lifecycle and spectrum of academic and administrative processes.

“Along with the benefit of technology that will allow us to grow, Jenzabar has a high view of integrity, which PIU as a Christian institution, also values,” said Devin Purgason, Director of Marketing and Website Operations at PIU. “Jenzabar was the only company that did not have to degrade its competition to sell their product; they just allowed the quality of their product to market itself. We appreciated that Jenzabar was a turn-key solution that would be used every step of the way by prospective students, all the way up to alumni.”
