The Office of Candidate Services is tasked with the admission and licensure process for all students in the College of Education who are seeking a teaching license. Our previous system of decentralized data across multiple platforms was overwhelming and inefficient. Airtable provides a unified environment where our data “lives” while also doing the work of managing and disseminating our data for us.
The base houses all of our data from the point our students apply to the program to the issuance of their teaching licenses. Airtable allows us to track our students as they move through this process and gives us the ability to share real-time updates with individual program coordinators through the use of views that are created uniquely for each program and for each step of the process.
Some of the highlights of our workflow include:
Data is not just information to be stored; it drives our programs’ decisions and helps to identify areas of needed improvement. Throughout the process Airtable’s robust features helps us make these data-informed decisions while giving us the information we need for federal and accreditation reporting purposes. All of our data is now just a few clicks away.
