Thanks to everyone who joined the first EDUser Group webinar yesterday! 🙌 It was clear that managing permissions can be a headache for folks - particularly in trying to understand the cascading impacts of what people may have access to.  @SUpton_VU generously offered to share a visual they use at Villanova to help keep it all straight. Sandy, thank you for sharing! Please feel free to offer any more insight and/or commentary as to how you have it deployed with your group!    Happy Building! 🔨 ... View more

🎬 Airtable EDUser Group Event Recording Hey everyone! Thanks so much to everyone who joined our Inaugural EDUser Group meeting! We had ~40 EDU professionals in attendance, and we’re blown away by the conversations and excitement that we saw. We’re feeling inspired for future meetings, and can’t wait to continue building this user group together on the Airtable Community. Here’s what we covered: 🌟 Airtable in Education - Operational Efficiencies Use Cases Faculty Pay Process - Airtable is used to streamline and create a centralized process, reducing inefficiencies and enhancing collaboration across HR and Payroll teams. (this was my use case!) Institutional Space & Capital Project Management System - Replaced outdated processes (e.g., post-it notes) and leveraging Airtable’s automations and interfaces for record keeping, transparency and decision making across academic departments. (@Blessing_Nuga's use case) Unifying Data and Event Management - Developed a centralized hub interconnecting member records, event coordination, and reporting structures. Automation and dashboards enable real-time updates, empowering stakeholders with accurate data for informed decisions and growth. (@pwin25 Paris Winfrey's use case) ❓Q&A Session - we received some great feedback from the attendees, and here’s what we’re considering for future meeting topics: Base sharing functions and more interactive access to Airtable templates Deep Dive into Permission Management (Join the discussion in this community post!) Automation Showcase - Highlight more advanced automations that saves time Navigating institutional IT and Integration with IT Systems Collaborative Brainstorming - Open forum for members to seek helps and collectively brainstorm with Airtable power users 📢 Call to Action We want to hear from you!

Hey Everyone -  Just as a friendly reminder - Airtable provides Free Team licenses for students.  We've seeing growing use of Airtable in curriculum and this is an easy way for students to get access to broader functionality.  Furthermore, as many of you know - Airtable provides discounts for education/nonprofit on our Team plan. Did you know, though, that these discounts are offered on our Business and Enterprise Scale plans as well? If you're interested in getting pricing for a higher level tier, just reach out to the Sales team.  Happy to answer any questions folks have!  ... View more

Hey Everyone!  As a friendly reminder - if you have students at your institution that are interested in exploring deeper functionality than what's offered in the Free plan, Airtable does offer Team Level FREE licenses for students. I know there are a number of institutions starting to embed Airtable into the curriculum.  Secondarily - it's worth noting that while many of you know there is a discount for EDU/Nonprofit on our Team Plans; we also heavily discount our Business and Enterprise Scale plans to make them more accessible to education leaders. Just reach out to the sales team if you want to better understand pricing options for the higher license tiers. ... View more
