Scheduling U in November

As part of the Office for Classroom Management's (OCM) Scheduling U series, the ASR training team will be leading a session for ECS users entitled How to make Astra work for you. You may already know how to use Astra Schedule to request an event or to view a calendar, but there is a lot more that it can do for you. Learn how to navigate the new system-wide scheduling tool to find information faster by using filters, saving searches, and running ad hoc reports to make class scheduling easier.

We're not experts on Astra, but in collaborating with OCM staff we found a few neat Astra tricks that we'd like to share with you, such as how to quickly search for sections that don't have an instructor assigned (may make grading go easier in December!) and when/where your final exams are scheduled.

More information on Scheduling U, including session dates and times are available here.
