Hello, I work at Northeastern University in the Office of the Provost. I've been using Smartsheet for a number of years but have only been with NU for three years. We use Smartsheet to manage projects with dashboards for easy reporting and to provide context to what has been completed and upcoming milestones and tasks. Our projects roll up to a portfolio dashboard. We also use it as a workflow process tool to track position requests and nominations.
I'd appreciate seeing how other universities are using Smartsheet.

I'm so exciting this group is around. I'm looking forward to connecting b/c smartsheet is not widely used here on my campus, I'm trying to get more to use the tool but the buyin is tough. We have a good handful using SMAR but that's it.

Hi everyone! I'm Kristen Christman, the marketing and communications project manager at DeSales University in Center Valley, Pennsylvania. I'm so excited Smartsheet has created this community for us higher education folks, and am looking forward to connecting with you all!
I have been using Smartsheet for about three years and we use it primarily to intake and track the projects our marketing and communications team manages. I presented on this during a Higher Ed User Group webinar back in March, so if you are interested in learning more about our processes I invite you to watch the recording!
We also just onboarded Brandfolder (the DAM integrated with Smartsheet) so are excited to see how that unfolds and can make our lives easier. We came from another DAM, but were really sold on the integration between Brandfolder and Smartsheet and some of the other bonus features the DAM had to offer.
I love learning how others are using Smartsheet and am always asking questions to see if there are different or even better/more efficient ways for us to be using the tool. I'll now be wearing that hat when it comes to Brandfolder, so if you're a newbie (like us) to Brandfolder, or have been using it a while, I'd love to connect to see how other higher ed institutions use/manage theirs!
Cheers! -
Hello!
My name is Jimmy Hughes, and I work at Penn State in the College of Engineering. My title is Instructional Technology Specialist. I have been using Smartsheet for 3 years but just got on an Enterprise-level account in the past year.
I use Smartsheet mainly to organize our courses for the Learning Design team. I have been rebuilding our processes better utilizing some of the advanced DataShuttle, DataMesh, and Pivot apps. Once I optimize the course process, I plan to do some cool API things with Smartsheet & Canvas.
As for what I would like to learn, I would love to hear how other groups handle their course assignments via Smartsheet, and if anyone else does API calls to Canvas from Smartsheet (with Python).

Hi my name is Amy and I'm trying to help a state university figure out how to better manage incoming marketing project requests. Does anyone in this community use it for this purpose? I am trying to compile a list of universities that have already had success with this tool for this specific purpose.
Thank you so much!

Hi everyone,
I work with a large school district in California and run all our projects from the IT side using this product. I integrate our vendors into is as well as speak at conferences about using it in a K12 environment to take the fire out of everything. More than happy to share with anyone on how we do it. We run an Agile Scrum office with it.

Hello!
My name is Ally Hepp, I run our IT Project Management Office at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). I've been using Smartsheet for about 6 months to stand up project and portfolio tracking for our IT division, and we plan to extend this to other divisions on our campus as we are able. I'm always interested to hear how others are using Smartsheet to manage projects and how they are scaling things at an enterprise level.
