- Coordinate data-sharing agreements with participating institutions before data collection begins, covering ownership, consent, and de-identification, with preliminary regulatory review from the regulatory consultant and final approval from UGHE's contracts team;
- Assess each institution's readiness for launch, maintaining a checklist of the resources schools need and plans for closing gaps, with technical input from the Infrastructure and DevOps Engineer;
- Prepare partner institutions for launch, including onboarding plans and training for faculty and students;
- Support schools after launch, tracking adoption, identifying recurring implementation barriers across institutions, and resolving issues with the product and engineering team;

- Bring partner input into product and evaluation decisions, sharing findings with the product team for use-case prioritization and with the Strategic Operations Manager for the evaluation framework;
