The ofCourse History

“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.”

“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.”

“I had never put together a course schedule by myself before and was nervous about the entire process. ofCourse made everything so easy because they have thought of everything! Not only did they walk us through all the steps of collecting information, inputting our courses and faculty preferences and crafting our fall and spring schedules, but they were there as a resource for me when I had general and specific questions about course scheduling. They are experts — so grateful to 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.”

“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.”

“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!”
