It is very easy in onCourse to add ‘sessions’ to any class, even to create repeating timetables in one go. The resulting timetable can be viewed by month, week, day or day of week (for example, showing two months of Mondays). It can also be viewed from the perspective of a tutor, course, class, site or room – this makes it easy to examine clashes and juggle classes around for best fit.

If you have an onCourse website, your students are also able to see timetables for each subject category and for each individual class, with pop ups giving full details and links to more information.

Once tutors are assigned to classes, and when students have enrolled, they can log in via their personal web portals to subscribe to an iCal calendar feed. This means that they can import their scheduled classes into their outlook. Gmail or other calendar and with live feeds, if you reschedule a class or change the room, their calendar automatically updates.

You can also view your college’s overall programs, or sessions, by subject grouping to see what your overall scheduled delivery plan is like for a given day, week or month.
