How has Airtable helped you unlock wins for your work in the EDU world? We needed a flexible database to track DEI efforts and activities across the institution and how they align to our goals. We also use it to understand our stakeholders and manage elements of our projects. I also use it for our communications content calendar and backlog.

We use airtable to manage a grant that we have. The bases we have designed help us with recruitment, data collection scheduling, and tracking participant data collection completion. We are growing how we use it over time and we think it's a game changer for managing our grant operations!

How has Airtable helped you unlock wins for your work in the EDU world? I have been the Airtable admin for our Extended University for the last two years. A significant win is how Airtable has allowed us to streamline our workflows and eliminate repetitive tasks. Our usage includes course scheduling, tracking/processing faculty appointments/contracts, CRM for Undergrad/Graduate Admissions Applications, Lead intake for recruitment, marketing, budgeting, position management, etc. I'm excited to read more community posts to share and exchange ideas!

Great to hear about others using Airtable for Comms Requests! That single functioned streamlined our processes significantly 😄

[HeyJose]

Love to hear it and totally agree! The best tools are the ones you build yourself and Airtable is a huge enabler.

We just started exploring using Airtable for budgets, but can already see the huge advantage that interfaces unlocks (especially for forecasting!).

How has Airtable helped you unlock wins for your work in the EDU world? We use Airtable to drive many different initiatives. One of the larger ones is tracking ASU Onlines course developments, course outcomes, quality assurance checks, and  various workflows related to those courses. These workflows leverage data from our "data warehouse" allowing us to stay in sync with the rest of ASU. 

Airtable has really helped many teams at ASUO scale and automate many of their workflows and processes from webinars to what tools we integrate into the ASU learning ecosystem.

Airtable has made it easier to manipulate and share data in real time. Making information more readily accessible to colleagues, increasing transparency and collaboration.

We began using Airtable in 2021 to manage an $11M federal grant project called CHOICE.  We use Airtable as the backbone of our custom-built dashboard  that integrates into our Canvas LMS and automates tasks, enabling our small team of six to efficiently manage complex programs and serve teachers from over 100 divisions across the state. Airtable also enables us support initiatives like the "Instruction to Industry" career exploration events in northern Virginia, managing data and communications for hundreds of students and employers. Additionally, we've built a dashboard for Sacramento County Office of Education to oversee a $15M computer science grant, expanding equitable, scalable professional learning in California. This past spring we kicked off a partnership with the Charleston County School District to streamline federal grant management and professional development processes, with plans to broaden Airtable use countywide.
