What's New in Scheduling

This article is provided to give highlights of the changes in one location, with links to updated content and other resources that can assist districts during the scheduling season.

In the next several releases, enhancements and modifications are occurring to Campus's Scheduling tools. All updates will be noted in the relevant Release Packs when they are available, and content related to those tools will be updated accordingly. 


In 2019, Oracle changed their license module, which then changed access to JAVA. JAVA is required to run the Schedule Wizard. In future releases, tools accessible through the Schedule Wizard - Trials, Whiteboard, Staff/Course Planner, etc. - are being enhanced to no longer need JAVA, and can be accessed directly in Campus.
