What is Compass?

Compass is the Internet's premiere Comprehensive Academic Support System that provides end-to-end survey assessments for students, employers, faculty/staff and alumni. Compass is fully customizable to meet every school's needs. As a subscription-based online web application, Compass makes it easy to distribute surveys to your audience, collect the results and produce a summary report in real-time, allowing for same-day results. Utilizing the latest Web Application technologies, there isn't any software to install. There isn't any infrastructure to maintain. Just open your favorite web browser and away you go!

Why do I need Compass?

Most school locations must adhere to accreditation commission bylaws, and most accreditation commission bylaws require regular self-assessments of the entire campus, including the student body, all faculty and staff, alumni and employers of placed students. Compass makes managing and reporting these self-assessments easy and efficient. Anyone who has tried to manage a paper survey system knows firsthand how time consuming meeting these accreditation commission requirements can be.

Quantitative feedback from your students, faculty, staff, alumni and employers is vital to maintaining a successful educational experience. Compass enables a school to respond to this feedback immediately, sending a message to all that its voice matters. In contrast, a paper survey system fosters a 2 - 4 month response time to feedback. Quite often, this delay in response is too late.
