Academic systems implementation
Sepal Campus is our own academic operations platform for community and technical colleges. We implement it area by area, timed to the academic calendar: scheduling when the next term opens for building, curriculum at the start of a curriculum cycle, the catalog with the next edition. Data comes over from Ad Astra, Modern Campus or CourseLeaf in trial loads, and each load is reconciled against the source before anyone signs off.
What we build
What you get
- Terms, meeting patterns, credit-hour and workload rules, roles and approval routes configured from your state's preset
- Rooms, courses, programs, catalog pages, faculty credentials and enrollment history migrated in staged, validated loads
- Ellucian Colleague connected over Ethos: sections published on publish, rooms and enrollment flowing back within minutes
- Canvas course shells, Microsoft 365 room calendars, Entra ID or Okta sign-in and Power BI connected
- A past term rebuilt in staging so conflicts and utilization match what you published
- Role-based training for chairs, faculty, the registrar and the curriculum office in the Sepal Campus Academy

Approach
How we do it
Configure
The registrar, curriculum office and IT set terms, rules, roles and approvals with us in a working copy.
Migrate and reconcile
Repeated trial loads until rooms, courses, programs and sections tie out with the reconciliation report.
Go live by area
Each area cuts over at its natural boundary, with Colleague running in parallel for the first published term.
Train and tune
Each role trained just before it needs to be, then reports, dashboards and rules tuned through the first full cycle.
