Case Study: Western Carolina University streamlines social work field education with Exxat

With Exxat, Western Carolina University’s Social Work Program streamlined operations and data management, saving 30+ hours per semester for administrative tasks

Western Carolina University’s Social Work Program needed a better way to manage field education data, including student records, contracts, timesheets, and agency communication, which had previously been handled through manual, paper-based processes. To address these challenges, the university turned to Exxat.

With Exxat’s paperless data collection system for field education management, Western Carolina University streamlined operations and improved data management during COVID. The result was a more efficient process that saved the program 30+ hours per semester on administrative tasks, while also helping the team track and collect data more effectively.
