- The entire WPI community has access to the Power BI app, which is included in your Microsoft 365 suite of products. Clicking on a dashboard link will bring you there after logging in with your WPI credentials.
- Public Dashboards (Admissions | Enrollment | Degrees Awarded | Retention & Graduation Rates) as well as WPI Community Dashboards (providing a more detailed level of data) have been migrated over to the new platform.
