  • 1.  Looking for a less expensive practicum data platform

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hi everyone, 

    We currently use Experiential Learning Cloud (Luminova, aka Tevera), and with the changes to their fee structure, we are finding it less and less affordable. I also don't think it is very intuitive or user-friendly.  The back and forth I need to do to get support is also time-consuming.  We have been on it for about 2-3 years, and before that, we used IPT (?) for a couple of years.  We are a midsize undergraduate fully online program that graduates about 24 students per year (to provide some context). What are other schools using?

    Appreciate any thoughts or considerations on this!

    Hello,

    I do not know if it will help but we are in the process of moving to the Exxat system. I cannot speak to its functionality, however a couple of programs within our college have been using it therefore our college has decided to move everyone to it. We have been using IPT for several years and it is not not what we need any more.

    Hi All, 

    I too am looking for something new. We have been using SONIA and it is so outdated and time-consuming. I was wondering if we upgrade to the Experiential Learning Cloud if it would be better, but based on what Retchenda mentioned, I am now questing that.
     I also checked out the Project Concert at  CSWE APM. Has anyone tried Project Concert or SimCare's field experience management platform? I will look into EXXACT. Any other feedback would be great! Thank you in advance.
