MyTimetable

MyTimetable

MyTimetable is a front-end for timetabling solutions such as Scientia Syllabus Plus. Up-to-date schedules are shown in a graphical user interface, in which every user has its personal user profile. Schedules can be exported to printable PDF documents, but can also be used as an iCal feed for Google Calendar, Outlook or a mobile phone.

MyTimetable is open source, so all source code is available to our customers. Developing new functionality or adapting the application to a specific situation of an educational institution is done on project basis.
