Success Story

Brenau University's PA Program

Streamlining Success: Brenau University’s Department of Physician Assistant Studies saves 10+ hours weekly with CORE ELMS

Time Savings Improved Communication Accreditation Support Enhanced Student Tracking  Reliable Support

Since adopting CORE ELMS in 2021, Brenau University’s Department of Physician Assistant Studies has dramatically streamlined operations and regained valuable time, reporting savings of over 10 hours weekly.

Previously, Brenau's PA program utilized a different software solution that fell short in meeting the comprehensive needs of their Physician Assistant education program. There was a need for a streamlined solution to organize clinical experiences, manage scheduling, and track evaluations. This led the department to seek out a more robust system capable of enhancing efficiency and supporting complex educational requirements. 

The Solution: CORE ELMS

Q&A with Shannon Parris, Clinical Support Coordinator at Brenau University’s Department of Physician Assistant Studies 

 

"It's [ELMS] stored a ton of the data that we need for the accreditation...which will save us all time and headache"

What features do you like best and why?

 “I use the reporting suite almost daily. The ability to sort and analyze data directly within the program saves significant time and effort…

The scheduling module is very easy to use! It's also very easy to just send an email to a preceptor if they haven't gotten their evaluation done. It's nice that the preceptor doesn't have to log in to do an evaluation. They already have 1,000 websites that they have to keep track of. 

I love the features that keep track of all of the students hours and their rotations. It's clean!"

What would you tell others considering using CORE?

“It is incredibly user-friendly, it saves a ton of time, and the students and preceptors find it easy to use as well.”
