Case Study: Minnesota State Community & Technical College Achieves Equitable Scheduling and Time Savings with Coursedog

Minnesota State Community & Technical College saves 580+ hours a year with Coursedog

Minnesota State Community & Technical College faced a major challenge in aligning its academic scheduling process with its Equity 2030 goals. Its outdated, manual system, reliant on spreadsheets and paper files, created inequitable schedules for students and consumed an excessive amount of staff time, taking up to 10 months to complete a full scheduling cycle. This process frustrated students by limiting their course access and hindered the institution's mission. The college turned to Coursedog's academic operations platform to address these issues.

By implementing Coursedog, the college shifted to a data-driven and student-centric scheduling approach. The platform provided real-time insights and predictive analytics, allowing administrators to design equitable schedules that better met student demand. The solution was praised for its seamless integration and collaborative approach. As a result, Minnesota State Community & Technical College significantly reduced manual work, saving over 580 hours per year, and expects to accelerate student time to completion, directly advancing its equity objectives.
