Benefits to Academics  

    Enterprise Timetabler provides academic staff with:
  • Accurate and up-to-date timetables. When used in conjunction with Scientia Web Server and / or Enterprise Reporting Database, staff can obtain their own timetables for viewing in a browser or as PDF.
  • Timetables that consider staff unavailability. The scheduling engine takes into consideration the unavailability of staff due to activities outside of their teaching commitment.
  • Timetables that give weight to staff preferences. Staff can record their preferences for or against working particular days / times and these are weighed along with other soft constraints in making scheduling decisions.
  • Timetables that comply with working practices. A wide variety of constraints can be applied including keeping whole days free for research commitments, avoiding consecutive evening and early morning teaching and ensuring time for breaks.
