Cohiva Campus vs aXcelerate: an alternative for Australian RTOs

Cohiva Campus is an alternative to aXcelerate for Australian RTOs. It keeps one student record across SMS, LMS, assessment and finance, applies AVETMISS rules through a data-driven engine that updates per collection year as data, and includes a NAT-file importer to bring across existing student data.

Where Campus fits

aXcelerate is a well-established student management system for Australian RTOs. Cohiva Campus is built for the same job, with a focus on a single student record and a data-driven approach to AVETMISS reporting.

One student record

Campus keeps student management, learning delivery, assessment and finance against one student record. Enrolment, the learning a student does, the outcomes they achieve and the invoices raised all sit in the same record, so the data that feeds AVETMISS reporting is the same data used to run the RTO day to day.

A data-driven AVETMISS engine

Campus applies the AVETMISS validation rules through a data-driven rule engine. Collection-year changes are applied as data rather than waiting for a code release, which helps you keep up with the standard as it changes. The engine surfaces issues before you generate the NAT set.

Migrating your data

Campus includes a NAT-file importer. Because it reads the standard AVETMISS NAT export an RTO already produces for reporting, you can stage your existing students, enrolments and outcomes without a special vendor export.

How to choose

Compare the products against your own scope, your reporting workload and how you want SMS, LMS, assessment and finance to fit together. Run your own NAT export through the Campus importer to see your real data staged before you decide.
