Built specifically for the syllabus
Learn why colleges and universities using Kuali choose Simple Syllabus to create, manage, and publish syllabi
Focused to help you succeed
Simple Syllabus takes a focused approach to syllabus management. We built the platform specifically to support the full syllabus lifecycle, giving colleges and universities the depth, flexibility, and ease of use needed to handle even complex requirements.
That focus also makes Simple Syllabus a strong complement to Kuali. While Kuali supports broader academic operations, Simple Syllabus provides a purpose-built solution for creating, managing, and publishing syllabi across campus.
As the largest provider of digital syllabus technology in higher education, Simple Syllabus combines deep functionality, extensive customization, and a cost-effective model.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR USERS
Usability is key
If a tool isn’t easy to use, people won’t use it. That’s where Simple Syllabus stands out. The platform is designed to save faculty time with a single-click publishing experience, automatic carry-forward of previous content, and major syllabus sections prepopulated directly from the LMS. Simple Syllabus also reduces the administrative work behind the scenes. Conditional logic automatically delivers the right content based on rules like delivery method, campus location, program, and more. Faculty see what they need, administrators maintain control, and everyone spends less time managing the process.
- Single page editing experience
- Seamlessly integrated
- Eliminate dual entry
- Intuitive design
Highly configurable
Personalized to you
Simple Syllabus has the flexibility to support what makes your institution, well, your institution. Through a simple click-and-drag administrative interface, non-technical users can control everything about your site. Users can design templates across campus using personalized terminology and workflows, so the software works exactly the way you need it to work. During implementation, our team of experts will help you configure the solution. The configurability of the Simple Syllabus platform ensures it meets your needs now and into the future.
- Customizable templates
- Configurable terminologies
- Conditional logic
- Dynamic workflows
DESIGNED FOR SYLLABUS USERS
Purpose built syllabus tool
Software that effectively supports hundreds or thousands of different instructors, publishing class syllabi across multiple modalities and campuses every semester, requires a significantly different approach than a catalog management tool— publishing once a year in the Registrar’s office. Simple Syllabus is fully embedded within most major LMS platforms and requires no additional training for faculty or students to use. Additionally, connections with your Student Information System can be deployed quickly, with multiple communication methods supported on most major commercially available platforms.
- Built for syllabus editors and users
- Embed in your LMS
- Easy for faculty and students
- Real-time API connections
