Achieve simplicity
Save time and streamline institutional processes with easy-to-use syllabus management software
Syllabus management made easy
Considered an important requirement for accreditation and a contract with students, syllabi have been notoriously difficult to track and maintain. Every semester, hundreds, if not thousands, of syllabi are created by faculty members across different schools, colleges, and departments. Many schools lack an efficient means or process for establishing standards and collecting data. Not surprisingly, more than one in three college administrators report that their institution has a problem with consistency in its syllabi. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be that way.
Simple Syllabus is a centralized, template-driven platform that automatically populates standardized portions of the syllabus, so your faculty and staff don’t have to—saving time. Easy to use and instantaneous, the administrative template builder enables users to quickly define the required informational sections, structure, and design of syllabi, with flexibility to give faculty the autonomy to personalize content for their classroom.
The tool is built on a centralized syllabus repository that archives all syllabi and supports accreditation reporting.
