Vineyard.
A cloud-based university management platform built for Pepperdine University.
10,000+ students,
one platform.
Pepperdine is a Southern California university with more than 10,000 students. It needed a cross-functional, efficient way to manage its classes.
Vineyard modernises day-to-day academic operations: professors manage assignments and follow academic progress in real time, and data-driven decisions become easy.
Courses, tasks
and exams in one place.
Professors needed a better way to manage their courses, and students needed to stop hunting for information across systems.
- 01Course management for professors

How we
approached it.
-
Step 01
Data analysis
We analysed the student data Pepperdine was already collecting.
-
Step 02
Workflow study
We mapped how professors and students actually work through a semester.
-
Step 03
Initial design
A first design of the platform, reviewed with the university.
-
Step 04
Co-creation
Client, staff and our team built it together so it fits the whole university.
Teaching,
made manageable.
Vineyard gives administrators, professors and students one place for scheduling, assignments and grade tracking.
Token system
Students earn tokens through activities and spend them on assignments.
Group management
Professors split students into groups and plan schedules and activities.
Built for every role
Administrators, professors and students each get the view they need.
