Help make life easier for instructors—save time and reduce workload through a syllabus publishing platform
Helping instructors get back to teaching
Creating engaging and informative syllabi shouldn’t be time-consuming or problematic, yet on many college campuses, it’s just that. Does your institution require complex syllabus templates? Do you spend time uploading or sending your syllabi to multiple locations and revising ever-changing policy information?
The good news is that can all change! Simple Syllabus was specifically designed to support academic freedom and help instructors publish syllabi—quickly and easily. Effortlessly build syllabi using customizable templates, eliminating the need to memorize or maintain every campus policy. Once published, the syllabus publishing platform takes care of the rest—published syllabi will be available and accessible in the central repository and automatically available in web, mobile, and print formats in all locations the syllabus exists.
The user interface is incredibly intuitive and requires no training. Its web-based architecture makes it accessible from anywhere, anytime, and requires no software installation or updates.
CONNECT AND SYNC
Better syllabi in less time
Directly embedded within your institution’s Learning Management System (LMS), your syllabus will prepopulate with data to save you time. Eliminate redundant tasks—automatically reflect course activity, such as assignment topics, due dates, points, and more entered into the LMS within the syllabus schedule. Data stored within the Student Information System (SIS), such as location, meeting times, or description, are also dynamically linked within your documents—no more data entry.

- Dynamically link LMS items
- Embedded LMS experience
