AI for universities, TAFEs and school groups

AI for the administration that runs across campuses: student enquiries, enrolment documents, staff policy questions and reporting. Student data stays in your environment in Australia, and a person approves what goes out.

Sound familiar?

  • The same enquiries every term

    Student services answers fees, census date and enrolment questions by hand from a shared inbox.

  • Enrolment documents checked by hand

    Admissions staff check transcripts and identity documents one by one at peak.

  • A different rule on every campus

    Staff cannot find the current policy, so campuses apply it differently.

  • Reports rebuilt each census

    Enrolment and retention figures are pulled from several systems into Excel.

What we build

  • Student enquiries inbox

    Emails classified, the student record looked up and a reply drafted for staff to approve.

  • Enrolment document checks

    Documents read against the application, with missing items listed for admissions.

  • Policy assistant

    Staff ask questions of approved policies and get answers that cite the source document.

  • Reporting across campuses

    One governed Power BI model for enrolments, enquiries and workload by campus.

  • Private student data

    Built in your Microsoft 365 or private environment in Australia. No student data trains a public model.

  • AI governance

    An inventory of AI in use, risk ratings and one staff policy across faculties.

Questions

Which AI tools are safe to use with student data?

Tools that run in your own environment, respect existing access rights and do not train public models. The OAIC recommends not entering personal information into public AI tools.

Can AI answer student enquiries without giving wrong advice?

It drafts replies from approved sources such as the handbook and fee schedules, and staff approve each one. Complaints, welfare and visa matters go straight to a person.

Who helps universities and TAFEs with AI in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane?

Solve8 works with multi-campus providers across Australia and New Zealand, with workshops on campus and builds run remotely under your access controls.

Which admin queue peaks every term?

A 30-minute review with a senior consultant. You leave with a written one-page summary you can share internally.
