Our integrations streamline academic processes, improve data consistency, and enhance digital experiences for staff and students across higher and further education institutions.

Get in touch

6B is an experienced CourseLoop integration partner, enabling interoperability through CourseLoop’s APIs, workflow endpoints, and curriculum-data exchange frameworks. Whether your solution supports programme approvals, curriculum mapping, academic governance, QA workflows, student-facing curriculum delivery, or analytics, we ensure reliable, compliant, and future-proof integration across complex institutional environments.

As a dedicated digital engineering partner for education, we help institutions build cohesive digital ecosystems where CourseLoop synchronises seamlessly with SIS systems, LMS platforms, quality processes, and academic information services.

Understanding CourseLoop Integration

CourseLoop is a modern curriculum-management platform used by universities and colleges to design, approve, govern, and publish academic programmes and courses. It provides structured workflows for curriculum design, versioning, governance, and quality assurance, and enables centralised control of programme data that flows into student systems, course catalogues, LMS platforms, and institutional websites.

Integration with CourseLoop is enabled through its REST APIs and data-exchange endpoints, which provide secure access to programme structures, course information, learning outcomes, credit values, delivery modes, prerequisites, governance workflows, approval statuses, and published curriculum data. Institutions can also use CourseLoop’s publishing tools to surface curriculum information across digital touchpoints, including student portals and public course catalogues.

Because CourseLoop is often part of a broader academic-systems ecosystem—connecting to SIS platforms, timetabling systems, LMS providers, and quality-assurance tools—successful integration requires careful alignment with academic calendars, governance cycles, institutional policies, and data-management structures.

Our CourseLoop Integration Process

We begin with a detailed discovery phase to understand your integration objectives—whether you need to sync programme data, automate approvals, surface learning outcomes in your product, support academic-analytics use cases, or feed curriculum structures into LMS modules or course catalogues.

Our architects design a secure integration blueprint that identifies the required CourseLoop API endpoints, data-mapping rules, authentication flows, and update frequencies. We define error handling, governance alignment, workflow triggers, and version-management logic to ensure safe and accurate curriculum synchronisation.

Development is accelerated using 6B’s reusable integration components—including CourseLoop API handlers, schema-mapping templates, synchronisation pipelines, and QA validation layers. These ensure consistent and reliable delivery across institutions.

Testing takes place using representative datasets and staging environments to validate data accuracy, performance, permission alignment, and behaviour throughout academic cycles—such as programme reviews, annual updates, and approval windows.

Deployment is coordinated with institutional IT teams, academic governance units, and digital publishing teams. After go-live, 6B provides ongoing monitoring, optimisation, and long-term maintenance to keep your integration aligned with CourseLoop updates, curriculum-governance changes, and institutional needs.

Benefits of CourseLoop Integration

Integrating your application with CourseLoop enhances curriculum governance, improves academic data quality, and reduces administrative overhead for academic and professional-services teams.

Institutions benefit from streamlined programme updates, automated data pathways into SIS systems, improved accuracy in course catalogues, and more consistent student-facing curriculum information. Integration also supports quality assurance, curriculum analytics, learning-outcome alignment, and evidence-based decision-making.

For edtech vendors, CourseLoop interoperability increases product adoption in the higher-education sector and ensures your platform fits naturally into institutions’ curriculum-management workflows.

CourseLoop Integration FAQs

Can the integration support automated publishing of curriculum updates to external systems?

Yes. CourseLoop’s APIs allow us to detect new or updated programme and course data and automatically push it into downstream systems such as SIS platforms, LMS modules, academic catalogues, or public course websites.

How do you handle curriculum versioning when syncing data out of CourseLoop?

CourseLoop maintains strict version histories. We design integrations that recognise draft, in-review, approved, and published states so only the correct version is synced, preventing accidental exposure of unapproved curriculum changes.

Can CourseLoop integration support analytics or strategic planning tools?

Absolutely. We can feed programme structures, learning outcomes, credit volumes, delivery modes, and approval data into analytics platforms to support portfolio review, compliance checks, workload modelling, and strategic decision-making.

Does the integration work for multi-campus or multi-faculty universities with complex structures?

Yes. CourseLoop is designed for large institutions. We build integrations that understand faculty ownership, campus variations, approval pathways, and programme dependencies so data flows remain accurate across organisational boundaries.

Can the integration detect when a programme update requires an approval workflow restart?

Yes. We can track changes to key fields and trigger workflow adjustments or notifications in your system when governance requirements dictate a new approval cycle.

How do you ensure alignment between CourseLoop data and SIS data such as Banner, SITS, or Unit4?

We map CourseLoop’s curriculum structures to SIS programme and module structures, ensuring consistent identifiers, credit values, learning outcomes, and delivery patterns. We also add validation to catch discrepancies proactively.

Can CourseLoop integration support student-facing experiences such as module selection tools or course-search engines?

Yes. We can surface real-time curriculum data directly into student-facing applications, ensuring they always reflect the latest approved programme and module information.

What happens if an institution customises CourseLoop’s data models or governance workflows?

CourseLoop is highly configurable. We create flexible mapping logic and integration rules that adapt to custom fields, approval layers, terminology, and academic structures unique to each institution.
