Programme and curriculum management for Irish education providers

One structured source of truth for every programme.

SocratIQ helps Higher Education and Further Education and Training teams develop, review and maintain programme data, map outcomes and assessments, and generate consistent QQI-aligned documentation without chasing changes across Word files and spreadsheets.

The familiar problem

Important programme knowledge gets spread across too many files.

  • Programme information is duplicated across Word files, spreadsheets and email.
  • A panel or programme change has to be applied in several places.
  • Academic, quality and operational teams can end up working from different versions.
  • Curriculum relationships are difficult to check across a whole programme.

The SocratIQ approach

Keep one structured record, then use it for review and outputs.

  • Enter and maintain programme information once.
  • Keep a current institutional programme record.
  • See how outcomes, modules, assessments and credits connect.
  • Generate consistent documentation from the record your team has reviewed.

SocratIQ helps teams keep the source information current so a change can flow into the views and documents built from it.

Higher Education

One reliable programme record for academic teams.

Keep programme details, outcomes, modules, assessments, schedules and panel updates together, then generate consistent documents for review.

Further Education

Awards, components and QQI documents in one place.

Use FE-aware prompts and terminology to organise awards, components, outcomes and assessment planning without duplicating the same information across files.

How it works

Keep the record current. Use it everywhere it matters.

1

Build the programme record

Capture award details, modules, outcomes, assessments, delivery versions and schedules in one place.

2

Collaborate and review

Give programme teams, reviewers and approvers a shared record, clear responsibilities and a fixed revision to review.

3

Check curriculum alignment

See how standards, programme outcomes, modules, module outcomes and assessments connect, with warnings to investigate.

4

Generate approved outputs

After institutional review and sign-off, create consistent descriptors, schedules and governed exports from the approved record.

Platform capabilities

A programme record that supports the work around it.

SocratIQ gives teams a shared place to build, review and govern programme information. The documents matter, but the structured record behind them is what keeps updates consistent.

Programme and module management

Build a complete programme record, including the structures that are difficult to keep aligned across separate files.

Structured programme data

Capture award, credit, delivery and programme context once.

Versions and pathways

Model stages, electives, delivery versions and progression routes.

Effort hours

Record contact, directed, independent and assessment hours with totals.

Schedules

Organise stages, teaching periods, modules and assessment timing.

Curriculum mapping and quality checks

Make relationships visible so teams can investigate gaps and inconsistencies before review.

Outcome authoring

Develop programme and module learning outcomes with clear prompts.

Standards and assessment mapping

Connect award standards, outcomes and assessment evidence.

Traceability matrix

Follow the evidence chain across the programme in a detailed table.

Visual alignment

Use mapping views to spot isolated outcomes and concentrated coverage.

Review prompts

Identify weak verbs, missing links and areas worth investigating.

Collaboration, review and governance

Keep academic and quality teams working from the same revision, with responsibilities and decisions recorded in the workflow.

Shared programme workspace

Bring programme leads, module builders, reviewers and approvers into one workflow.

Roles and permissions

Assign organisation roles and programme responsibilities to the right people.

Review and approval workflow

Submit a fixed revision, record findings, request changes and approve the reviewed version.

Controlled revisions

Keep approved content governed and create an editable revision when changes are needed.

Documents and centrally maintained templates

Treat documentation as an output of structured programme data, not another place where the data must be rebuilt.

Programme Descriptor

Generate a working or governed programme descriptor from the assembled record.

Programme Schedule

Create a schedule from the selected programme version and its delivery structure.

Maintained templates

Keep document formats and templates centrally maintained for consistent regeneration.

Portable programme data

Copy or download structured JSON for backup, testing and controlled import.

Catalogue and integrations

A structured programme record can support wider institutional information flows over time.

Reuse approved information

Reduce duplication between programme approval records and public course information.

Future integration work

A programme catalogue and API are planned areas to explore with pilot providers.

SocratIQ supports institutional academic judgement and quality assurance. It does not replace them.

Demos & Pilots

Book a demo or a pilot.

Pilot SocratIQ using one of your existing programme-development, validation or review workflows.

An initial discussion can cover your current process, one existing programme or documentation workflow, repeated pain points, a suitable pilot scope and the outputs you need.

Arrange a Discussion

What a first discussion covers

  • A walkthrough of the current workflow
  • One existing HE or FET programme or documentation scenario
  • The changes, handoffs and repeated checks that cause the most work
  • A suitable pilot scope and the outputs to explore
