Smart Scheduling Guide to Shortened Terms

Smart Scheduling offers a transformative opportunity for institutions to leverage technology and data in revolutionizing academic operations, ultimately enhancing student success. One key strategy within this framework is the implementation of shortened terms, designed to reimagine the traditional 15-week semester. This approach provides students with greater flexibility, improved access, and accelerated pathways to degree completion.

In this webinar, Laura Hunter, Vice President of Solutions Strategy at Ad Astra, and Russ Frohardt, PhD, Interim Vice President of Academic Success, explore how intentional and data-driven course scheduling practices are essential for advancing equity and optimizing institutional effectiveness. They introduce Smart Scheduling as a core strategy to refine course scheduling, ensuring institutions of all sizes can better serve their diverse student populations.
