EMS Campus
Academic scheduling and event management in higher education
College and university campuses frequently struggle with the task of getting
academic classes and the wide variety of non-academic
meetings and events that they host into the appropriate rooms. And even after the classes,
meetings and events have been scheduled, there is still the challenge of communicating all the
information to students, faculty, staff and the surrounding community.
EMS Campus™ helps higher ed organizations meet their facility scheduling challenges
with multiple products in one:
- Powerful academic scheduling software
- A full-featured meeting and event management system
- A comprehensive online calendar program
Complete Campus Scheduling
With EMS Campus, the three primary facets of campus-wide space management – academic
scheduling, event management and campus calendaring – are seamlessly integrated into one
“complete campus scheduling” product.

university's EMS Campus implementation.
For the academic departments and registrars working to ensure that every class meets in
a location and at a time that is acceptable to professors and students, the system
provides automatic room assignment within user-supplied parameters,
integration with your SIS/ERP software and efficient online collaboration tools. Meeting and event
staff have access to a powerful array of tools for booking single- or
multi-day events, reserving the services and resources required for those events, producing
operational and statistical reports, and tracking financial transactions. For those tasked
with generating and maintaining an online campus calendar, EMS Campus makes it simple
to publish event information to the web.
Easy Access to Schedule Clarity
When it comes to effective use of your rooms and resources,
ease of access is key. While
your EMS system administrators will typically utilize the powerful desktop application, the
majority of your users will access the system in other ways for different purposes.
For example…
- From the road to get details on a scheduled event or space availability
- To reserve a room on-the-spot for an impromptu gathering
- From within Microsoft Outlook® to invite attendees and book the room for a meeting
With the “Enterprise-level” EMS scheduling systems (EMS Enterprise™, EMS Workplace™,
EMS Campus™ and EMS Legal™), there are access methods to support any mix of space management
approaches: centralized, self-service from the web, walk-up or Outlook-based.
Simplify your scheduling with anytime, anywhere access!
System Includes...
Virtual EMS™ (Web Interface)
Leverage the power of the internet with this web-enabled module for EMS Campus™.
Virtual EMS provides fully interactive, real-time access to scheduling information
via the internet or your organization's intranet. Website visitors can browse the
calendar or search for specific events from any computer with an internet browser.
Authorized users (employees in your organization, meeting organizers, facility staff,
etc.) can, depending on the level of access granted, submit room requests or create
self-service reservations directly from the web through a secure, user-friendly
interface.
The best way to learn more about Virtual EMS is to test drive it yourself
