Overview
Coursedog has a multi-faceted integration with Degree Works across different products.
Course Demand Projections makes use of Degree Works audit data (GET only) for its demand projections.
In Curriculum Management, our “Scribe Generator” makes it easy to export requirements into the Degree Works application.
We follow best practices around architecture and security and do not store any Tier 1 personal identifiable information.
Coursedog is an Ellucian partner and won the 2021 Ellucian Rising Star Partner of the Year Award.

Course Demand Projections (CDP)
Coursedog has built a one-way integration with Degree Works APIs to run batch student auits used for our Course Demand Projections module.
CDP leverages historical enrollment, audit data, and pathways to ensure you are offering the sections and seats students need to graduate on time.
In short, it helps you answer questions like, “Does our academic schedule align with student demand?"
