Concourse vs K12 Plus RTI/MTSS

Concourse is a cloud-based web platform for creating, revising, auditing, and discovering syllabi in higher education. It is designed for faculty, staff, administrators, and students. Tiered institutional, intermediate, and course templates let institutions share standard information and update it across courses. Permissions can be assigned to groups or individuals at system, school, department, or syllabus level. Reports cover access, utilization, and section-level content, with filters for narrowing results. A central repository preserves past syllabi for students and accrediting bodies and can display them to prospective students. Concourse accepts feeds from student information systems and catalogs, supports single sign-on, and connects through learning management systems using LTI 1.3. The Starter edition is upload-based and includes a searchable public archive plus core compliance and access reporting. The maker states that it meets WCAG 2.1 AA and Revised Section 508 standards. Starter pricing begins at $2,000 a year, based on full-time equivalent enrollment, including implementation and maintenance.

K12 Plus RTI/MTSS is a school-district module for coordinating academic and behavioral interventions and tracking student progress. It centralizes support information to help staff identify students at risk, follow IEPs and goals, and adjust interventions over time. The module supports intervention documentation and team collaboration, and can automate benchmark and progress-monitoring assessments. Dashboards show progress, with alerts when students are not meeting goals. Workflows may include digital signatures, notifications, service-delivery logs, audit trails, and state reporting files. Teachers, parents, and administrators can use the mobile app to access information and communicate. K12 Plus Complete adds SIS integration, with Ascender, PowerSchool, and Skyward among the named systems; data syncing uses the Ed-Fi data model and APIs. The module runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Pricing is available on request; Focus, Connect, and Complete package details are listed without prices.
