The ofCourse History

“I love using ofCourse! It has made the process of scheduling faster. Instead of weeks it takes a couple of days to put a solid schedule together. For the first time we were able to build a student centered schedule that also takes into account faculty preferences. Being able to analyze the schedule in various ways helps to give us a more detailed understanding about the decisions we make. When a professor asked that his bar course be switched to a different day and time, I was able to send him the weekly grid view of the schedule so that he could see what the impact of moving that course would do to students. Once he saw that he understood why I placed him where I did and appreciated the insight.”

“Before ofCourse I used poster board and sticky notes to map out the schedule. That could easily turn into a nightmare if one fell off. And getting it from the poster board to online was time consuming. With ofCourse, I actually look forward to making the schedule! Troy was so patient during the training process. He’ll walk you through each step and is always there to review the steps if needed. The process is smooth. Once done it can be easily exported. The ofCourse team is always looking for ways to improve the product and annually solicit suggestions. I can’t say enough good about it!”

“This was our first time using ofCourse and our experience has been great! Troy walked us through each step of the process in detail and promptly answered the many questions we had as we went along. We were impressed by the amazing service Troy provided, as well as the many helpful features ofCourse has available. In particular, we found it very useful to have the ability to categorize all our courses into their subject matter groups and, at a glance, ensure courses in the same group did not conflict. We also found the schedule reports and various charts, readily available for download, to be great visual aids when we started presenting the schedule to our various stakeholders. Thank you, ofCourse!”

“With the help of ofCourse, we built a schedule that received no complaints from the faculty. Zero, none, nada! This is a first in my eight years of helping to build the semester schedule, so it brings me so much joy! No one had to compromise & no one got the short end of the stick.”

“10/10 Would totally use again and recommend to friends. Training was fun, not painful. Program is easy to learn and will make you happy inside if you’ve ever scheduled an academic year for a law school without assistive technology. I love that it’s smart enough to build multiple schedules in seconds and has the flexibility for users to fine tune the schedule without unraveling the whole thing.”

“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.”
