How is Compass different from SIMS?
Compass features user-friendly forms (screens) organized in handy folders, and will feature robust reporting and analysis tools. Eventually, Compass will offer some additional functionalities for faculty and advisors. The Compass screens will look different from the screens in SIMS, and information will be displayed differently. The menus and the wording of certain fields will change. Therefore, users will need to change the way they perform certain job functions and will receive extensive training in using Compass.
