Case Study: George Washington University School of Nursing streamlines course development and accreditation with Smartsheet

George Washington University School of Nursing streamlines 160+ courses a year with Smartsheet

The George Washington University School of Nursing faced challenges with decentralized and chaotic project management for its curriculum, relying on disparate spreadsheets and tools. This made coordinating course development, accreditation compliance, and strategic planning inefficient and time-consuming. They turned to the vendor Smartsheet for its project management and automation platform to centralize these processes.

Using Smartsheet, the school implemented a central system to manage over 160 courses annually, using sheets, dashboards, and automated workflows for syllabus review, accreditation mapping, and faculty onboarding. Integration via Data Shuttle connected real-time data from their ERP system. The solution saved several administrative hours per week, provided better visibility for students and faculty, and enabled proactive strategic planning. Smartsheet gave the school the robust framework needed to streamline operations and focus on its educational mission.
