Adopt brings every instructor's course material list into one place - reviewed through a single approval workflow instead of scattered emails and spreadsheets. Institutions get clean, complete adoption lists on schedule, term after term.
Tired of chasing adoptions down through email, spreadsheets, and hallway conversations? Adopt gives every instructor one online portal to submit materials - so nothing falls through the cracks, and nothing shows up late.
Materials move from outstanding to approved through one clear pipeline. If something needs to change - a new edition, an out-of-print title, anything else - admins can send it back for revision with a comment explaining what's needed. Once everything's approved, the course locks automatically, giving you a reliable, final list to order against.
Instructors can explicitly flag a course as requiring no materials. It's treated as a complete response, so you always know the difference between "nothing needed" and "hasn't answered yet."
Materials from repeat courses can be pulled into the current term in a single click and adjusted as needed - cutting down on late or missing submissions term after term.
Message instructors directly inside the system, tagged to a specific course or material, so context is never lost to a separate email thread.
Configure scheduled reminders that go out automatically to instructors with outstanding adoptions, on whatever cadence works for your calendar.
Instructors log in with a one-time email code - no password to create, remember, or reset.
Give staff access to only the modules they need - Terms, Courses, Messaging, and more - with restricted modules clearly marked.
Upload departments, courses, and instructors via CSV, with per-row feedback on exactly what succeeded and what needs a second look.
Adopt turns scattered adoption chaos into one accountable workflow. Adopt keeps every instructor accountable and every course adoption on schedule - no more late materials, no more guessing.

Instructors can edit their materials while in pending or revision status; any edit resets that material to pending so it gets reviewed again. Admins can edit any adoption at any stage regardless of status.
Instructors can explicitly mark a course as "No Materials Required." It's treated as a complete response, so there's no ambiguity between "nothing needed" and "hasn't answered."

Automated, scheduled reminders go out to instructors with outstanding lists, and materials from repeat courses can be copied forward from last term in one click - reducing the two biggest causes of late adoptions.
Yes. Role-based access lets you grant staff access to only the modules they need (Terms, Courses, Messaging, etc.), with locked modules clearly marked.
Admins can send any material back for revision with a comment explaining what's needed - no separate email required. The instructor sees exactly what to fix, updates it, and it flows back into the approval pipeline automatically.
