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.”

“I have the zeal of a convert when it comes to ofCourse. Using an algorithm to produce the class schedule is a no-brainer, but only if the system is intuitive and flexible, and comes with loads of user support. All three are true here.”

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

“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.”

“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.”
