A course scheduling system for programs that aren't a university registrar.
Bootcamps, workforce academies, continuing-education divisions, corporate universities, and training providers all schedule courses across instructors, rooms, and dates. TryTami is the course scheduling system built for that scale: conflict-free, enrollment-aware, synced to every instructor's calendar, and live in about two weeks.
What is a course scheduling system?
A course scheduling system is software that plans when, where, and by whom each course session runs, prevents instructor and room conflicts, and links each scheduled session to enrollment, attendance, and billing. Academic course scheduling software for universities (Coursedog, Ad Astra, Infosilem) optimizes thousands of sections against registrar constraints; course scheduling software for training programs does the same job at program scale, with instructor qualifications, cohorts, and client or funder reporting instead of degree audits. TryTami is the latter.
The distinction matters when you are choosing. Registrar-grade academic course scheduling platforms assume a fixed campus, a course catalog approved by committee, and a semester rhythm. A bootcamp, a workforce program, or a training company runs rolling cohorts, contract instructors, multiple sites and modalities, and courses that change every quarter. Buying a registrar tool for that is a six-figure implementation to get a calendar; a spreadsheet is a calendar with no conflict detection. The gap between them is where a training management system's scheduling layer sits.
| Capability | Academic scheduling platform (registrar) | Spreadsheet + calendar | TryTami |
|---|---|---|---|
| Instructor conflict detection | Yes, campus-wide | Manual | Automatic across sites, clients, time zones |
| Instructor qualification and credential gating | Faculty load rules | No | AI matching scores credential status; lapsed credentials flagged |
| Rooms, sites, modalities | Rooms and buildings | Manual | Rooms, sites, virtual, on-site, blended |
| Enrollment, capacity, waitlists | Via the SIS | No | Native, per session and cohort |
| Reschedule cascade (learners, instructor, billing) | SIS-dependent | Manual | One action |
| Calendar sync | Varies | One-way at best | Google + Outlook two-way |
| Implementation | Months, IT-led | Immediate | About two weeks, founder-led |
| Pricing | Enterprise, per FTE | Free | Feature-based, no per-seat fees |

What it schedules
Every course, cohort, instructor, and room on one calendar.
Term, cohort, and rolling schedules
Plan a fixed term, a multi-week cohort, or a rolling public calendar; sessions carry course, instructor, site, modality, capacity, and price.
Conflict detection before you publish
Instructor double-bookings, room clashes, capacity overruns, and time-zone mistakes are flagged at planning time, not the morning of.
AI instructor matching
Every instructor scored on availability, subject, site, and credential status; backup instructors for co-taught or at-risk sessions.
Enrollment linked to the schedule
Seats, waitlists, confirmations, and reminders attach to the session, so a date change reaches every learner without a mail merge.
Bulk operations
Move a cohort, reassign an instructor's twenty sessions, or clone last term's calendar in one step.
Two-way calendar sync
Instructor availability stays current from Google and Outlook; published sessions land on their calendars automatically.

Do we need academic course scheduling software or a training management system?
If you are a university registrar scheduling thousands of sections against room inventories, faculty loads, and degree requirements, buy academic course scheduling software. If you run instructor-led programs — cohorts, bootcamps, continuing education, corporate or customer academies, commercial training — you need the scheduling layer of a training management system, which adds instructor qualifications, enrollment, attendance, and billing to the calendar and implements in weeks rather than semesters.
A useful test: does your schedule change after it is published? Registrar schedules are largely fixed for the term. Program schedules move constantly — an instructor gets sick, a client shifts a date, a cohort fills early — and the value of the system is in what happens automatically when they do.
Frequently asked questions
Is course scheduling software the same as class scheduling software?
Not usually. Class scheduling software mostly refers to booking tools for gyms, studios, and K-12 timetables. Course scheduling software plans multi-session courses across instructors, rooms, and dates for programs and training providers, and links the schedule to enrollment and records.
Can TryTami schedule courses across multiple sites and time zones?
Yes. Sessions store site, room, modality, and a time zone; instructors and learners see local times, and conflicts are checked across every site and client at once.
Does it integrate with our student information system or LMS?
TryTami integrates with common LMS, CRM, and calendar tools, and schedules and records export as CSV for import into other systems. It is the system of record for delivery, not for degree audit or financial aid.
How long does implementation take?
About two weeks, founder-led. Course catalog, instructor roster, and existing schedules import from spreadsheets; the first live term is usually built in the onboarding sessions.
How is it priced?
By the features you need, with no per-seat, per-learner, or per-FTE fees and unlimited users. Pricing is quoted on a demo.
Can it handle both scheduled cohorts and open-enrollment public courses?
Yes. Closed cohorts, dedicated client deliveries, and public open-enrollment sessions live on the same calendar with their own capacity, pricing, and registration rules.
