Catalog and curriculum management systems automate and enhance the procedures and processes used by educators and administrators to manage courses and programs:

* Collaborative creation

* Design

* Proposal

* Review

* Approval workflow

* Assessment

* Maintenance of metadata

These systems track key course attributes and dependencies (such as prerequisites) and map courses to curriculum, documenting and enforcing institutional governance. They may create the course catalog view for display on the institution’s website, and support curriculum planning and course logistics. Functionality may also include support for course, program and institutional assessment.
