Academic Scheduling Optimization That Increases Space Utilization 5–10%
Series25 space optimization turns plans and data into real scheduling scenarios that deliver the best use of rooms/locations. The Schedule25 Optimizer is a bulk scheduling tool that uses a powerful algorithm to match courses, requirements, priorities, and departmental preferences to available classroom inventory. Based on the input class data, room pre-assignments, rules, and department and staff preferences (such as for back-to-back instructors), Schedule25 considers all possible classroom placement options and generates in seconds an optimized course schedule ready for export to your SIS, based on your review and approval. Customers utilizing this tool typically experience a minimum 5-10% increase in space utilization.
