Education

Author-it stores content in one central location for multiple users.

Concerns

Educational institutions maintain vast amounts of documentation including:

  • training materials
  • presentations
  • student guides
  • manuals
  • online knowledge bases
  • catalogues
  • policies and procedures
  • website content

With each new semester there may be significant documentation changes required. Implementing these changes can be expensive.

Solution

Using Author-it, educational institutions can easily and effectively manage and update content. The one source, one solution philosophy means all content is stored in one fully searchable database and allows more than one person to work on a single document.

Using variables, such as "date' or 'class id" means updates can rapidly cascade through all occurrences of this content. Multiple outputs can be published, including print, pdf, web and online help.

Some of the clients who leverage the power of Author-it:

  • Chapman University
  • Midwestern University
  • Research Foundation University of New York
  • Thomson Rivers University
