The University Problem
When coaching programs grow beyond 50 students, spreadsheets and inboxes stop working.
- Manual email chasing
- No visibility into participation
- Faculty & students too busy
Sound familiar?
With Simply.Coach, you can centralize coaching initiatives, track progress & engagement, streamline administration and reporting, and support the institute’s goals.
How Simply.Coach Solves This
Administrative Dashboards
Know who's on track, without chasing inboxes
Get a real-time view of your entire coaching program:
- See which students have met, which haven’t, and what’s scheduled next
- Identify gaps early, before the semester ends
- Replace manual spreadsheets and email follow-ups with clear visibility
- Designed for program managers who need oversight, not micromanagement.
Automated Nudges & Reminders
Support busy faculty and students, automatically
Coaching often slips simply because everyone is busy.
Simply.Coach helps keep programs moving with:
- Automated email, app, and optional text reminders
- Nudges for unscheduled sessions or upcoming deadlines
- Scheduled reports sent to admins or cohort leads
- No more manual chasing. No awkward follow-ups.
Faculty-friendly Scheduling
Built around real academic calendars
Faculty coaches can:
- Sync with Microsoft, Apple/iCloud or Google calendars
- Set coaching availability on their terms
- Let students self-schedule within approved time windows
- Admins get visibility into what’s scheduled, without interfering with how faculty manage their time.
Student Mobile App
Meet students where they already are
Students can:
- View upcoming sessions
- Receive reminders and nudges
- Track completed coaching interactions
- Access everything from their phone
- Mobile-first by design makes it easier to stay consistent and improve outcomes.
Private Notes and Sacred Boundaries
Protect the coach–student relationship
Coaching conversations remain private and respected.
- Session notes are never visible to administrators
- Coaches may keep private journals for their own records
- No surveillance, no content monitoring
- Trust remains intact, by design.
Cohort-based Reporting & Delegation
Scale without centralizing everything
As programs grow, responsibility can be shared:
- Delegate oversight by class, year, or cohort
- Assign admins or program leads to specific groups
- Maintain consistency across hundreds of students and dozens of coaches
- Built for programs that grow year over year.
Oversight Without Intrusion
Academic coaching works only when trust is preserved.
Simply.Coach is designed to give institutions what they need, without crossing boundaries.
- Admins don’t see session content or notes
- Coaches retain full autonomy in how they work with students
- Programs retain governance through participation tracking and reporting
- Optional private journaling supports documentation and risk protection, if needed
- You get confidence that coaching is happening, without interfering in how it happens.
