The World’s Best Curriculum Management System Just Got Better.

July 10, 2012 - PRLog -- Governet, creators of CurricUNET, the award-winning curriculum management system for higher education institutions, announced today the release of CurricUNET Meta. Like its predecessor, CurricUNET Meta is the most comprehensive curriculum management system available in the market today. The new version not only includes more elegant, user-friendly design, and simplified navigation, but also a breakthrough capability for self-serve system configuration by clients.  In addition, CurricUNET Meta offers a suite of optional modules that integrate all major curriculum processing functions: academic curriculum management, program review, assessment, articulation, advisement, and catalog management.

“It’s a revolutionary breakthrough, both in terms of its technical design features and its integration of the entire spectrum of curriculum processing functions,” said George Tamas, Governet’s Chief Executive Officer.  “It represents more than a decade of curriculum process innovation gleaned from several hundred institutions of higher learning. Therefore, it’s a hallmark achievement and a great source of pride for Governet.”

CurricUNET, initially designed by Governet’s innovative team led by Steve Thyberg, Vice President of Business Development, has set the standard for best practices in curriculum management, including development, management, workflow and the dissemination of course and program data. Currently serving more than 340 colleges and universities throughout the U.S., Canada and a national college system in the United Arab Emirates, CurricUNET has been adopted by three statewide higher education systems including Iowa, Illinois and California.  

The advantages of adopting CurricUNET’s suite of automation services are well documented by participating institutions, which have reported significant savings in terms of financial, human and natural resources. Today, CurricUNET Meta offers a multitude of enhancements that simplify course creation, program development, approval processes and reporting methods. With its elegant, intuitive new design, CurricUNET Meta vastly improves connectivity and transparency on both an institutional level and state level, streamlines articulation and transfer for students and enhances accessibility.

“For more than a decade, we have been building a worldwide curriculum network which contains a database of more than a half-million course and program offerings accessed, primarily, by educators and administrators,” Tamas explained. “CurricUNET Meta’s new user-friendly design will make the database even more accessible to counselors, faculty and ultimately to the 5.5 million students served by our institutions, which will empower them to make more informed choices about their educational path.”
