Course Management Software for Schools & Universities
Define academic programs, manage subjects with prerequisites and credit requirements, organize student batches, and run degree audits. Your registrar's office maintains one authoritative course catalog instead of reconciling five different spreadsheets.
Key Benefits
One Authoritative Course Catalog for Your Entire Institution
Define every program, subject, credit requirement, and prerequisite in one place. When your registrar updates a course definition, that change propagates to enrollment validation, degree audits, the timetable, and the student portal automatically.
- Model any academic hierarchy (faculties, schools, departments, programs, concentrations, minors) in a single structure
- Define subjects with credits, contact hours, theory/practical split, and assessment methods
- Set up prerequisite chains and co-requisite rules that enrollment enforces automatically
Batch and Cohort Management That Scales
Organize 50 students or 5,000 into batches with capacity limits, linked subjects, faculty assignments, and progression tracking. No more juggling section spreadsheets at the start of every semester.
- Create batches with start and end dates, capacity limits, and linked subject offerings
- Assign faculty to specific batch-subject combinations with workload visibility
- Track cohort progression through multi-semester and multi-year programs automatically
Degree Audits and Credit Tracking That Save Advising Hours
Instead of advisors manually counting credits from transcripts, the system tracks earned, remaining, and in-progress credits for every student in real time. Degree audits generate in seconds.
- Track credits by category (core, elective, general education, concentration) against program requirements
- Flag students who are off-track before they discover it at graduation time
- Generate degree audit reports that show exactly which requirements each student has met and what remains
