The ofCourse History

“ofCourse manages the most complicated aspects of scheduling (including avoiding room, time, subject area, and faculty conflicts) in a fraction of the time that it took for us to do it manually. The software is intuitive, and the schedules are consistently better for students and faculty than our old schedules. When we have had questions, Troy is quick to respond to our inquiries. When we need to make a change, it is reflected on the published schedule in real time. After using the software for two years, I cannot imagine going back to manual scheduling.”

“ofCourse does it all — from gathering faculty preferences, to policing conflicts among classes, to maximizing the efficiency of classroom use — and it does it in a very flexible, user-friendly way.”

“I have been using ofCourse for two years and I cannot think of making a schedule without it. The system is incredibly user friendly—it really does create a basic schedule with the click of a button. But the system is flexible as well, giving the user the ability to customize and improve on that basic schedule. Not only is it easier for me, students and faculty love the schedules I’ve been able to create. Students report far fewer conflicts and faculty get their day and time preferences most of the time.”

“ofCourse has revolutionized our scheduling process! Since implementing this software, we've experienced a dramatic simplification in how we manage our course scheduling process. The export features are particularly impressive, producing sharp, professional-looking schedules that are easy to distribute and understand. Moreover, ofCourse excels at accommodating faculty preferences.

One of the standout aspects of ofCourse is the exceptional customer support, personified by Troy. His thorough training sessions ensure that we're utilizing the software to its full potential, and his ongoing availability for questions and assistance is invaluable.”

“The ofCourse Scheduling software helped us to migrate our course scheduling process from a series of Excel sheets to one consolidated program. Last semester we used ofCourse to schedule 169 professors teaching 235 classes. Using the automated faculty emailing system to gather teaching preferences took a lot of pain out of the process and gave faculty an easy way to list conflicts.”

“Using ofCourse was one of the best decisions I made as associate dean — it improved our processes, saved time, and made scheduling vastly easier.”
